Last I read it only took the Voodoo motor 16lbs to reach 1000rwhp.
17#s to make 1030whp.
Well, he did mention it lived at 900hp for a few months and was beat on constantly, not to mention it's a centri car so it's probably actually harder on the crank than a set of turbos.
I don't think we know what the actual limit on these engines are, we can speculate all day till we are blue in the face but until someone pushes the limit, it's just that.
Also, I agree with you, if I had this car I would keep it NA. But it's not my money and the OP wants power.
for the record, now he and the shop are the ones that have pushed the car the farthest on stock motor. So if something happens....
Some dont want to be known as 'the first guys to blow up a Voodoo'
ya know?
Remember, boost is actually a measure of restriction.
Yes, exactly...but holy crap that car sounded amazing.
Lol I can understand that. I wouldn't want to be the one to find the limit, personally.
But that's not really the point I was trying to make, those engines may only prove reliable at 850whp, or 1000whp, or 1200whp, we just don't know yet.
reliable is the key word and the real kicker is several motors have popped with stock tunes on bad shifts. So they definately arent made from adamantium.
I'd probably leave the GT350 n/a, drive the daylights out of it. FI would be fun but I would keep that car simple.
Do you know the nature of the failures on these blown shifts? I am guessing oil pump gears coming apart? Though I also wonder if there is bearing damage, given how much oil some of these motors consume, its entirely possible spinning it to 8K+ while low a few quarts would certainly hurt some bearings.
lot of good input in here fellas, i do have a built block in mind already but wanna push the envelope with a stock motor initially
Put that 2.9 whipple on and run e85.. I put a 2.9 whipple on my boss LS and it pulls strong. The new 2.9 keeps making power past 8k. On a voodoo I'd be interested to see what it would do.
Would you consider doing a dual clutch transmission? I have yet to see an auto or dual clutch GT350. It sounds blasphemous, but if you're going all out why not mate the motor and turbos with a transmission that will put all of it to good use?
Its like the folks with Viper ACRs that are putting twin turbo kits running 1300+rwhp. Completely nuts but still missing a fast shifting auto.

Im with you on gears. Id like to see one of these with 4.10s or 4.56s.
I'm sure, or "assume" this car is running on E85 or maybe even race fuel. Does anyone know?
I wonder what this setup would do with 93 octane. (Only 93 octane available in MA unfortunately.
) Obviously it wouldn't be as high as 1,000HP, but I bet it's still up there and would scare you if you stabbed the GO pedal.
