What is the best guess as to max rwhp for 2011 GT500 stock motor internals? Getting cams done but I am at around 720rwhp now. Had to pull timing to get me down to that. What is the general consensus on what this motor will take? Thanks in advance.

I've been over 800rwhp for a while, with cams, running E-85.

From the research I've seen it is 700-750 rwhp however I think altitude plays a factor. I would see what the uncorrected number is and base it if that.

Us Denver guys get almost a 20% correction factor so if we make 850rwhp it's really only 680. However, then you have to look at how much your spinning the crank etc.

It really depends --- How long do you want it to last? HOw much risk are you willing to take? Like said above, 'general consensus' 700-750 whp has been seen as fairly safe with a proper tune.

Depends on how hot your tune is, how you drive the car, and how good your luck is. Keeping the RPM down will play a big part in keeping it together. I made 850whp on stock motor but kept the limited set at 6,000.
