What applys to one car doesnt mean it applys to another. These cars have ran in the 9's and 8's in the 1/4 and made over 800whp on stock internals

naw i mean my family is into race cars YouTube - ‪Kelby Simmons Clay County 6-4 Feature‬‏

lol its cool man alot of people see low post numbers an think they dont know what they are talking about but sometimes they do.

Forged rotating assy only costs $2500-3000.

+$800-1200 for the rebuild.

Then you're going to want heads ($500-2000) and an improved valvetrain (800-1200)

Then a nice transmission, $3000.

Then some nice tires.... $1000 + wheels (1000-2000).

Oh hai, 9600-13 400.

edit: forgot a new power adder.

figure another 3 to 5 thousand for that.

Dont listen to this guy, he obviously has no idea what he's talking about.

240hp is very good for your mods.

Why was that directed at me?

I just wanna see the G8 the OP is talkin about

I think you need a little more explanation for your turbo dyno matt...I think you were trying to say that a rebuilt engine wont give you 500hp? at least not cost effectively?
