how much can the stock block really see? ive been running 440rwhp for awhile and i run the hell out of it at times without any problems whats so ever.... ive had the motor like this for 7 months. also, i just got a aluminum flywheel and a tranny with less drivetrain loss... so if i put down say 20 more hp and have 460rwhp, would that mess with the engine hp i already have and cause the motor to blow? i would think it'd be easier on the motor and less stress. also, if i put alki injection, will that make my motor safer with more hp or will it blow it from me running alot more power out of it? because with both mods, i would like to see 480rwhp out of the stock block or more.. but im wondering if this can be done without any problems.... since in not really adding boost or other mods, just colder air and lighter drivetrain.

forge your block paul. then you can add like 700hp if you want.

racer02GTstang

you dont know how tempting it has been... but ive been wanting a suspension that is worth a damn before that since all i have are springs and control arms...

rjgstang

vortech would have been enough lol!! have you been to the track?

rbstang

oooo ya i think the stock block was only made to hold about 420rwhp... but people have taken it up to 450 and some have been fine but others have had problems...

monkeydude3

you car sounds insane. If you forge it, it will be rediculous.

racer02GTstang

yea, i ran it at a 8.2 @ 89 or somethin like that and blew 3rd gear out... thats why i had to get the new tranny. i only had a 2.0 60' that time.. i hope to pull a 1.7 next time out...

racer02GTstang

that makes me feel comfortable if i push 460-480rwhp.
