Do you have a built bottom end? If you do, I'd throw aggressive blower cams in there and boost the F out of it.

Not that much money...have you addressed suspension yet? If I were you and had the budget, I would do a built bottom end, and a TFS heads/Stage 2.5 CMS blower cams combo.

Thats what I meant by my post. An s trim wont cut it..

I think Ox hit low 600s on a novi 2000, TF intake, ported PI heads and CMS blower cams. Just remember.. you need basically a whole new fuel system.

A good friend of mine is making over 600 rwhp out of a 2V. Close to 700rwhp on spray. He has well over $30k tied up in the entire project. I'll post his mod list of you're seriously interested.
