looking for a good place to buy a motor. im wanting a stroker motor and want it bored. i want the new trickflow 195 heads and i want them to port match the intake to the heads and maybe fully port the intake. i am looking for 450 hp from a 8.5.1 compression motor. either supercharger cams or turbo cams dont know if im going turbo or supercharged. i looking to make 700 or better wheel hp when it is all said and done. my plan is to run 20 lbs of boost or better and on pump gas. i want to use e 85 fuel. it is everywhere around here.. im looking to run 6.40s or better in the 1/8 mile. i know of dss, but who else is out there to buy a motor from?/ for the motor i have a $9000.00 budget.

 

I have MMR and am pleased
You can also look at DSS, CHP and a few others

 

It's said that Modular Mustang Racing (MMR) has some really great longblocks and shortblocks and so forth. They could probably get you the right setup if you gave them a call.

 

Modular Performance. John Tymensky is the owner, and is arguably the best mod motor builder around.

 

You can do 700RWHP from a stock bore stock stroke ported PI head motor with 20lbs of turbo boost easily.

Anything more than about 15lbs of boost with a turbo really needs race gas/E85 for max power as you have to retard the spark timing too much. Been there done that many times.

As for short/longblocks there is Tymensky at Modular Performance and then there is everybody else IMHO.
