I figured the Whipple goes just north of 1000HP so the pistons need to be able to hold that too. My preference is to add parts just once but I'll probably have to compromise with the fuel system right now. I'm hoping more options will be out in the future. Then you have the other issue of adding a lot more power then breaking the supporting systems like shafts, clutch, etc.

Maybe a SC/NOS combo
Your rods will be alright until you hit 900. Honestly street ability starts to suffer that far north on HP. Obviously they won’t hurt, I would just hate to see you add rods if you’ll never get thit full benefit. If you are looking at boring yours out, Texas speed has a full bottom nd 416 that’s pretty reasonably priced.
