that's one way to get there but its also just the beginning. All the supporting mods needed really add up to finishing the job. The big stuff is obvious, forged bottom end, GOOD heads, big super charger, drivetrain upgrades and such. Then there is the not so obvious stuff that adds up, wiring harness, front end accessories, bigger everything from injectors to intake manifold, great tune, fuel system and so on. Let me just say I have a ton of respect for those of you that have the big HP cars, especially the ones that are well sorted out. You all have a whole different level of commitment to what you want and what you are willing to do to get it.

You have big goals and that's good but 12k will be a down
payment you are going to spend some serious bucks to reach
that goal. Oh yea--stock tranys won't last long with your
power numbers. Good luck.

Not sure if you read the entire thread but right now with around 12k I am wanting to supercharge and keep stock block. I will also do a cam, full exhaust and meth probably. This will get me where I want to be for now. In a few years I am wanting to build my block or just buy a larger cube block and then start building the rest of the drive train to hold the power I will be making when I go bigger.

Have you seen the used ttix for sale? Crazy low price. I paid full price and still worth it. TTiX has been good for me. 700rwhp on a bone stock LS6.
You wont have to mess with belts and pulleys. You don't need a cam or headers. Meth is good once you go over 600rwhp on pump gas.
