coach said:800??? not with iron heads. I've done 4 years worth of homework and talk to the fastest of the fast. Completely done irons with full race porting will quit about 700 or more...maybe 750. Thats coming from one of the best engine builders in our little community.

You're one of the people I was thinking of when I made this statement. I also assumed that your heads were Champion iron out of the box.I think this combo "should" make that kind of power to !! We ran 138+ in a 3660# GN with iron Champions and a Champion stock redone intake both straight out of the box. We thought about 740 rwhp ?? This car was a DD for the summer.. Motor has a LOT of miles on it..

You Ohio guys...lets just say Northeast Ohio. There are a 100 of you in that area, and your all fast as hell.Red is from North Olmsted, Ohio.
if only it was that easy. It takes a lot of engine to make 900hp. Only about 3 have done it that I know of with stock blocks.FASTV6HENRY said:64/66 Turbo that will spool really nice for the street and will take you upto 900HP....
I usually open my hood and dump the contents of my pockets and wallet in. Go to the track, and the car is faster. How much easier can it get????if only it was that easy. It takes a lot of engine to make 900hp. Only about 3 have done it that I know of with stock blocks.

I hope your at least running a good synthetic blinker fluid.I don't even run valve springs. They are just added weight.
