I would get new internals and then go twin turbo i think that would be the best way to see the numbers you are wanting.

Forged Internals and Turbo would be the best bet or a Kenne Bell. It's reliable once you have forged internals...just not cheap.

I would do suspension mods, beef up the tranny(or buy a stronger one liek a tko 600) and then do the motor.

other wise, if u want some fun, get 373's, suspensions mods, and some spray.

If you want numbers that high, a KB2.2 is the sc you need or a turbo setup. In either case you'll need to forge the entire rotating assembly. The tune on the car will be crucial in longevity. You could get there on N2O, but you'd need serious engine work to make as much HP off spray as possible. Stage 2 heads at a minimum,cams, Fox Lake P51 intake, more displacement and more compression. That should get you around 350 on the tires, possibly a little more depending on the exact setup, then you are a push of the button away.

What kind of budget are you working with? What kind of power adder are you serious about. Would you rather get there on motor? That is an aluminum 5.4 4valve option. ;-)

I've seen a few places that list their forged GT shorblocks for around $3,000.00 The KB 2.2 kit is around $6,000.00 If you do the install yourself you'll be real close there. Could get 500ish on the tires that route. That is not touching the heads or cams, which if you want 500-600 RWHP you will have to change.

Your not getting that kinda power for 10K and be reliable. Just the bottom end and supercharger will cost 10K then you need a better tranny . I have about 13K in my motor counting the D-1SC.
