400 whp on N/A VQ possible?

That's what I was afraid of hearing. the highest NA is like 340-350 on pump gas, I just believe that you can squeeze 50 more whp without sacrificing drivability. Wouldn't you agree?

What are you basing the idea that there's another 50whp in there? If you go through shamus build, he'll be close to 400whp with a 4.0 on e85. Pm him and ask costs.

From where? Not even on big american engines can you make gains of 50 whp without sacrificing some measure of drivability. It ain't happening on the Z. Not without a stroker crank, some big nasty cams, higher compression, headwork, etc...

You can't squeeze blood from a turnip.

LMAO, if you don't know the history on this build or the person that is responsible for it, you are sadly mistaken. If it gonna get done this build has a better chance than any so far.
