Looking for a good daily driven system that will produce between 550 and 650 rearwheel horsepower ?

I am going LSA conversion myself and I calulate it will come in cheaper than an ECS system as I was calulating the cost for both... Will you be doing the work yourself? I you are going to road race or drag race regulary then lean toward the centri...

If you only want the horsepower you're claiming go with LSA but we all know in a few months you will want even more power so....

LSA... its great for daily driver and many get 600 RWHP with cam and pulley

Without cam and just pulley, very doable...

BTR stage I is easier on the valve train and makes plenty of power. You will need to plan for spring, pushrod and trunion upgrade to go along with your new found power. LS3 starts getting on the ragged edge at 620rwhp....
