Alright everyone, my 21st birthday is a week away and I've decided that I want to dump most all of my bday money into my GT.
It's a 2000 GT vert. 5spd. 66k w/ magnaflow catback. I got it in May and so far the only thing ive done is a zex wet kit 75 shot. My long term goal is to run with the big boys, SVT cobras, built SS's and WS6's, STis and the occasional vette maybe. Im lookin for close to 475rwhp and id like to break into the 11s. Heres my list of things i was thinking of doing but any help, opinions, and criticism would be appreciated.

MMR 5.0L Street Mod 600 Stroker
Stage II ported PI heads
Comp Cams stage III cams
Power+ Typhoon intake manifold
BBK LTs
O/R H-pipe
Full bolt-ons
FRPP 42lb injectors
Upper and lower CAs
Tubular K-member
DRs
FRPP 4.10
MOSER 31 spline axles
Eaton posi 31 spline LSD
Zex 150 shot (have)
minor weight reduction

and a moderately aggressive tune of course.

Should this get me to my goal of ~475rwhp and 11s or am i being wildly optimistic?
Any other ideas or suggestions?
I thought of going w/ forged internals and the supercharger route(maybe a used one) with spray as well.

Realistically id like to get as close to my goals for under 8K if possible.\


Thanks!

does anyone know how good the mmr shortblocks are? they are pretty cheap and look like they make good power. im looking at one of those for the future when i start getting into boost

Get a turbo setup, its pretty pricey but all in all the best bang for your buck. Their in the neighborhood of 3500-6000 depending on the kit and how radical you want it to be.

Ive heard good things about them. I was looking at a 302 stroker kit for my 4.6 and found a couple around 2400 bucks, then i noticed that the MMR stroker shortblock was only like 2900

most turbo setups ive seen for the 4.6s have been pretty pricey. plus id still have to get new internals to handle the boost. as well as heads/cams/exhaust. im afraid the turbo route might go over my budget


i already have my nitrous so i was tryin to go the built motor route and spray the **** outta it. ha

Sell your car, take the money and put a down payment on a Cobra, I know if I had 10K thats what I would do.

with the kind of power you want to make, you'll have to have forged internals if you want your motor to last.

you'll be into the 11's for sure with 475 rwhp, deep into them.

Man, I wouldn't get that typhoon intake if I were you. Get a P-51 or Bullit.

+1 definately the way to go

For what you want to do anything is going to be pricey. It takes some strong parts to handle 500+ horse (at the flywheel). Your going to need forged crank rods and pistons, all of which are damn expensive. And as for cylinder heads, Just get some 4V ones, and send them along with your intake to extrude hone, itll cost around $700 or so to get the porting done, but its worth every penny. They shove a paste where the t-body bolts up and it exits out the valves.
