I would start with the Lingenfelter 750 kit and add a good set of 1 7/8 or 2 inch headers with a solid tune will get you where you need power wise. You can piece together a 750 kit yourself for less money but the link provided gives you an idea on what parts you'll need. Hope this helps.

Just dyno number, then meth kit, spool the TVS-2300 up more with a smaller pulley, and Long tube headers will get you there quickly.
Hence the TVS-2300 spun up that much is going to become a heat pump, and the meth kit will help to cool it back down, and protect against engine knock/detonation.
If you looking for a motor that will be able to put out 800HP long term such as in road racing course use, the it's time to pull the bottom end to change out the pistons and piston rods to stronger units instead. Hence the stock pistons and rods will allow you to make 800 short term use, but when the motor is being pushed daily for that 800hp time and time again, the stock piston and rods will not last long instead.
Hell, there are guys with centrifugal force super chargers on stock LS-3 that are making that kind of power, but the motor is only making that every so often to allow the motor (piston and rods) to last isntead.

Well i got my motor, I want to change it to Wet sump, I saw they make a kit. Is there a diagram where all the connections plug, like vacuum, sensors, etc. Also do they make a aftermarket pulley set up chrome or polished? The stock one is ugly..lol
