I dunno, I was just askin cause my friend thinks that he can make a 350 faster than the 4.6. He has a 1990 IROC Z28 and hes gonna drop a supercharged 350 in it. I'm just wondering how much I could get out of my engine so I can **** him off when I slay his rolling brick, lol

well I don't think I would run 1000hp on the street, I would run 800RWHP safely with drag radials and **** EVERYONE off

I just want to make sure that I can kill anything that he can create, and I want to keep it street legal too, I dont want to get a mile to the gallon when I drive around or have to have someone sit in a side car to constantly add gas to my tank, lol

wouldnt 800 HP shred my tires whenever exhale next to my accelerator ? wouldnt I have to do some serious computer work to make it so that it wouldnt go crazy on the street ?
