1,000 RWHP cars are like submarines. It's cool to brag and say you got one, but what are you going to do with it?

800 RWHP is hard enough to handle in a street driven car. 1,000 RWHP is even worse. Good luck getting it all to hook up in a RWD car.

What really interested me about this project was the 4.5L block. I would love to see what kind of power and torque this would make in a NA application.

The car is running Race Logic Traction Control System and also R-Comp tires...

The 4.5L block is good but will most likely transfer more heat. We noticed a lot more heat with the 4.5L and had to upgrade every aspect of the cooling system. I would be more inclined to go with the 4.2L if I was to go NA. However, with either one you are going to be looking at over 400rwhp with the proper setup NA.

I would go with a 12+ Compression ratio

but that would require a higher blend of gas or a really good tune!
