[QUOTE="IUP99snake, post: 8698951, member: 7060"] I agree, 450 is about as far as you should push it. I've seen a stock 01 cobra make 561 to the wheels with a D1 procharger and sheet metal intercooler, and it survived. The owner was smart enough to take the blower off before the motor scattered. Mine made 510WHP, and it lasted a year before it melted a ring land during a street race. The shop that installed my forged replacement fried it before I got a chance to really drive it, so I dropped in an aviator longblock in it for CHEAP! It makes about 450 to the wheels with a very conservative tune that dumps fuel and pulls timing in the higher RPM range. So far, it's lasted 50,000 miles and running strong! My advice. Pull the motor out and get it forged before you destroy anything if you plan on running boost. That way, you've got a nice block and crank that don't need any major machine work. I'd like to practice what I preach, but I just don't have the cash for it.. I'm going to start building a separate shortblock in my garage while the car is still running, and swap it out when it's finished. Homer [/QUOTE]
