Build Question
OK Guys, I know enough about motors to get myself in serious trouble. Let me start out by saying I wont be able to do anything myself, so I'll need to have this done for me.
I have an 07 GT with only 17,000 miles on it. I want to rebuild the motor with all upgraded performance parts. I'm lookin to get 500-550 horse power (Naturally) out of it.
What do you experienced guys think this would cost me to do? Keep in mind, This was my first Mustang so I want to keep the original motor block. I don't want a supercharger or turbo.....yet. I want to go natural first. What are your thoughts on price?

550 N/A is most likely impossible.
I'm currently in the process of building mine to 360-370whp N/A.
Full bolt-ons, heads and aggressive cams will get you to 400-420 whp.
I've yet to see anyone ever get close to 500whp out of a 3v, even with a stroked block.

Not likely to get there NA.
The best bet to get the most power NA would be to go for a 3.7" bore, destroke hte crankshaft, billet rods & pistons, high compression, highley ported heads and big cams, an aftermarket PCM, bigger injectors & fuel pumps, E85 fuel and spin it up to 9000 RPMs. At this point your cost is well into the 10's of K's.

You can 450 with a stroker running 11:1 compression, ported heads, customer cams for that application on all the bolt ons and be streetable but at that cost you might as well through a FRPP Whipple kit on and call it a day and get more power.
