That car kind of spoiled me and I miss it- should have held on to it. While a supercharger is the easiest and most cost effective way to add power, I really liked the way that big NA motor pur down the power. I don’t know if a cam, heads and headers on an LT1 can produce over 600 HP so I am exploring the idea of going a step further and boring it out and increasing the displacement. Would like to hear from anyone who has done this and if you are happy with the results? I am worried that if I move past heads, can, exhaust and a tune, that the price of the work will jump exponentially
Also, does anyone have experience with an engine builder in Texas?
Thanks in advance

I don't know the costs but you are right. to go past heads/cam/bolt ons will get a lot more expensive. that being said there are some really fast na combos around here and I don't think any of them have anything more than heads/cam/bolt ons. not sure if any of those guys are breaking 600hp but I don't think they are too far away.
