tranny swap + 8.8 rear + stroking it (better then getting the internals seperatly then boring it) + power pak

lol man i hope you have money

idk about the tranny sway and how much that'll cost but stroking, power pak and 8.8 rear is $6k

im guessin a tranny swap is about $1k...$2k for the 6 speed

$8,000 to have 300hp and run high 12s low 13s

with that much money i could have a safe low 11 v6

The tranny swap was about $3k for the 6-speed.

You can get a 90mm lightning maf on ebay for around $100.

lol k with that being sed $9,000 for a 300hp v6....not including the cost of the car...
if i had $9k i'd have my car like i want it in a month

[speed4goal]

I'm not to worried about cost. This car is going to take me awhile to build. I just want to do it right, So it can handle the boost and nos I plan to put on it. If i'mma going to mod this car, I may as well do it big!

I had the car like I wanted it once. Then, I blew the engine. Then, I blew the rear end. Then, I totaled it. Then, I blew the tranny.

Once you modify one thing, the rest of the car isn't engineered to handle the change. A chain of broken parts begin. Then, you get to the point where everything has been replaced and built up.

Just make sure you've accounted for every possible problem.

no one wants to believe it but its true +1

[speed4goal]

+2 I've seen some people at the track put a new motor in then blow there tranny after a few weeks. At the track a few weeks back a lightning blew its transmission apart. They had to put the oil dry out for the fluid, and pick up a few parts. It took them like 45 mins to get the track ready to race again

also if your going to boar out your motor it would be a good idea to take your pistons to the shop where your doing it and get each piston custom fit to each cylinder...youll make a bit more hp

I used to work at a small engine shop. That is the ONLY way we would rebuild an engine. Every piston is different.

ya when i was talking to a guy that im buying all my parts from said that every piston could be slightly off
