The 750 hp 364c.i. motor in my garage will need frequent rocker adjustment with the solid roller cam. Any fuel injection I use will have to be checked frequently to ensure proper fuel delivery. And I don't plan to be able to do much long distance driving with it I.E. 500 mile trips. That motor makes it's HP without any power adders.

Isa I think you will find if you get your motor over 1000hp you will loose alot of drivability. And will find every weak point in the drivetrain.

it's a track toy... and you must think me a fool to not rebuild the trans at that point.. we are talking about doing a full trans cryo/rebuild of the trans, looking at different rear ends... Im not walking into unfamiliar territory! lol hell, I turned a fwd 3g eclipse into a head swapped, turbo monster, that if i hadn't run out of money would have been awd.. I had everything installed.. and ready to go.. i just needed to payfor a custom CF drive shaft... but I got orders, and ran out of money.. so I sold it, and moved on to Nissans lol

I really only need 750-800 for track purposes.. however, we would like to break the 1000hp barrier on the VQ just to do it.

GALE!!! There was a VW passat (?) there w a turbo! I heard it coming off the track and it sounded like a pneumatic pop pffff...i was talking to a guy w a Mustang GT and said: what was that?! Did you hear that?! He said real calm..oh yeah-it was "just" his turbo. Lol!!!
They were having issues and wondered what a turbo going bad sounded like. I sooooo wanted to ask you! I bet you know the answer. Not because yours has gone south but because you are o knowledgable about that stuff!
