Im new to building v8's. I just picked up an 87 hatch. Im planing on running 800-900hp. I want to twin turbo. Not sure wut parts to use. I was planning a 351 with an x303 cam. I want to keep the car fuel injected and automatic. Help with a mods list. Budget for the motor is about $9000.

If you want 800HP, you are going to need to do some serious research into parts combos..or perhaps pay someone to build you a combo.

It's not exactly as easy as slapping a few parts together and OMFG! 800HP!
