1,000 hp from 355 cu!

I was reading that the pro stock trucks are making 1,000 with 358 ci. I guess the heads flow like 460 cfm, I sure wish my Corvette had that much power. lol...

Yeah, I'd like that kind of power! ...but comes at a significant cost. Lowsey idle, noisy, hard to tune and expen$ive.

It's possible without too much sacrifice of idle, just ALOT of sacrifice concerning money. Forced induction is very street friendly!

Thanks for the complements! If you've followed the forum for a while, you'll notice that this was Speed Racer's car. I purchased it last year from California(that's where he resides) and have changed the rims and added a few more "Goodies".

It's always good to hear positive criticism.
