Hi!

First of all, been going through the forum and did find a lot of useful information, incredible forum!!

I am stuck on a few issues at the moment and needed some clarification.
I have a 2023 SS 1LE and would love to increase it's power and here is my plan so far (trying to keep it street legal here in canada also), not in any specific order and it's probably a 2-3 year planning (budget is going on other stuff for the house also)

1- supercharger (probably magnuson or procharger, haven't decided yet)
2- change fuel pump and injectors from lt4 (unless you guys can recommend something better, seemed the best option so far)
3- cam change
4- cold air intake change
5- forged internals
e85 is not an option here but we do have some 94 octane here.

So far I would like to get near 700whp which I guess I could by increasing boost and so, and maybe later on some modification for over 700 who knows.

The issue I have, is I don't want to have major problems with the motor so been looking into going with forged internals. I don't think I can actually pull the motor out myself or not confident enough anyway. So, been looking around and geez..we're talking like 12K to get the job done here which seems astronomical. Unless someone knows a shop who has better price around montreal I'm kind of stuck.
So, was wondering if a drop-in would work without removing the motor.
Putting the supercharge seem relatively easy as they do have step by step for this, but the forged internals??
Can I get a set and just remove the oil pan beneath , replace the piston/rods without recalibrating or measuring stuff or anything?

Anyone could help with this? maybe a step by step with all the info would be very nice.

note: the car has around 6k miles, would probably do the job next winter when it's around 10-12k

thanks for the help
