500hp & 550 ft.-lbs.???

[BowTie Eater 5 Liter]

ok, i was just wanting to know if this combo could make 500hp & 550ft.-lbs., so i thought id turn to the experts (this is where you come in). here is the combo of ALL the parts:

-stock shortblock with a dss main support system
-tfs t/w heads
-tfs street intake
-stock cam
-65mm t-body & egr
-incon twin turbo kit set at 10psi (kit includes 30lbers, 190lph pump, custom chip, intercooler, 80mm maf, turbo headers...)
-tfs 1.7rrs
-crane hi-6 & lx92 coil
-2.5" h-pipe
-2.5" cat-back (need some help deciding on a Quiet one)
-tfs hardened pishrods(not sure what leghth)
-termec tko tranny & 3.55 gears
-ssm liftbars & upper c-arms
-50/50s, 70/30s, eibach drag kit & frame connectors.

ok, thats all of it (i dont think i left anything out).
now, could i expect 500hp? should i be able to go 10sec 1/4?


any help on pushrod legnth & a quiet cat-back would be appreciated
thanks....

I would definatly say you could hit that kind of HP. That stock cam will hold you back a bit, but it should be ok. go with a 70mm TB over the 65 with the forced induction.

You come up with a new motor combo everyday. 10psi of tubro boost with that motor will be insane. You could easily make more HP than that actually. 10's will be there providing you don't blow the rearend and you can hook up.

what happened to the 351? I love blowers, but there is a lot to be said for NA reliability. You could build a 351 for less than the 302 plus the turbos and it would last longer. 500hp can be rough on a stock bottom end. PLUS, are you planning on changing spark plugs ever?

Sounds about right, but I would ditch the stock cam and get something a little beefier (nothing too extreme)......also, you might want to price out a new rear and some slicks. You'll need the slicks in order not to make 14 second runs at 125 mph (you'll be spinning all the way through 3rd). That's where the rear end will come in.....with that HP, you're sure to snap that stock rear.

Sky- I Think I Finally Found An Engine Combo That Will Go 10s & Be Streetable(I Hope).

As For The 65mm t-body, i herd(saw in a magazine) that the 70+ wernt smog legal(not sure if true, but if not, ill go 75mm)
as for the cam, i want a sleeper that doesnt rev that high (5500rpm) to make lots of power. i will be getting 3.55 gears, & 26x10.5 dot tires.

I NEED ADVICE ON WHAT CAT-BACK TO USE FOR MY SLEEPER!!!

Also, i dont know a lot about rear end stuff, so what would i need so i dont bust axels???

dirtking- sparkplugs??? what kind???


thanks.....

Get a better cam and forget the 1.7rrs. Your intake should have shorter runners. TFS Track Heat maybe? 70mm TB.

I agree with DirtKing, though. Go with more cubic inches and build a beefy n/a engine.
