Stock block, it won't happen. Maby a Dart block combo, but even then, it won't be easy.

depends on which procharger, but you would be better off going with a turbo for that kind of power

My thoughts exactly, it would have to be one hell of a big charger and big motor to make that sort of power. For sure keep us posted when you embark on this journey, it will be a good one.

You can make a 1000HP with a 320ci motor and a F1R procharger, I'd prefer a 331 over that 347 with a custom piston to give you a little more on the top land.

My 360ci combo with my F1R will make over 1000RWHP easily....25psi

Rick do you deal with stock blocks at all for your customers? I want a reliable 500 engine HP and dont see the point in a Dart block.....unless I was drag racing for prizes or money or didnt want to buy a house. Is it possible to be safe at that level with a stock block?

Also did the new Boss block come out yet?

If you use a S/C instead of a turbo just think you are throwing away 300rwhp

True the blower does take power to drive but there is no lag... To make those kind on numbers a 88mm turbo would be my choice. We can argue the turbo vs blower thing all day long...

I do everything from stock rebuilds to class motors....I'll even build a Chevy or import..lol www.rnhperformance.com

A reliable 500hp will be on borrowed time in a stock block. The new BOSS block is not out yet, but at the price I have heard tossed around I would just look at the DART Sportsman.

Read Hot Rod this month, there's an article about street engines where Duttweiler says he could build a 1500 hp Ford small block on twin turbos... Not saying you should call him or anything, but its good research reading

Why not just put twins on it?

People with turbos have to run lower displacement motor's. A better word is there more restricted than a guy running N/A or with nitrous or even with a supercharger. Depending on what class your racing. They have a write up about this over at turbo mustangs(not in the forums).

thats just b/c on a highrt dispacement motor there is more rotating mass, making it harder for the turbos or anythin for that matter to turn it, doesn't mean it would be better without a turbo..
