super stang
Hi everybody I am preparing to buy a 94-95 mustang and was planning on adding some serious upgrades on it. I am planning on adding a DSS CNC level 20 block and a VT rotating assemblie with Oliver Billet I beam rods and Diamond pistons. Also I will be adding a Stroker kit, a new transmission, a new clutch, a 6 pt roll cage, an entirely new suspension, and a pair of new rear wheels. To top it off I am going to be purchasing a turbo for it some time after I finish all of this. I am trying to get this stang to run reliably at 700-800 hp. I was just wondering if this engine setup would be able to handle that much horsepower and please tell me if I forgot anything. Most of the engine I am going to be doing but the transmission, turbo, and roll cage i am going to pay someone to install.
Thanks for all your help.
P.S.- this is going to be a daily driver.

RE: super stang
1) Theres no way that the block will handle that much power. I dont care what kind of support system DSS is putting on there.
2) what kind of trans are you going to run with that 700hp? manual or auto?
3) When you say reliable, do you mean street reliable or drag reliable?
4) What size turbo?
5) What size stroker kit?
6) You will need a huge head/cam/intake setup to achieve them goals. You will need to run something like AFR 225's (race heads)
7) Also, think about the type of fuel system you are going to need. You will need EVERYTHING and the best of the best (lines, pump, injectors, etc.)
8) I wouldnt try that on a 302, 331, or 347. Its def possible with the right setup but it will be alot easier with a 351W, 357W, 393W, etc.

ya I know that block is only 675+ but I haven't found a block that could handle around 1000hp. I am going to start on it sometime in March but I don;t know when I will have it finished.

RE: super stang
Seriously, not saying that your not capable or anything because I dont even know you. But think about EVERYTHING that needs to go into this. Think about the kind of suspension you are going to need to make that thing catch traction. The ignition to support 800hp, the fuel to support 800hp, the trans, etc. etc. Thats a REALLY expensive build. If you are going everything new. Expect no less than 20,000.

RE: super stang
yah I know it will cost a lot but I am mainly trying to get the most street reliable and most powerful engine for around $13,000. My mechanic skills arn't the best but I have two friends that can help me out and both of them are really good with cars. Also I was trying to decide if I should just replace the engine or just upgrade the one all ready in there because I know I will have to replace a good amount of stuff If i switch out the engine.
