Starting a budget build

[Lebedin8654]

The car has a S trims so power is not a big problem, whatever i lack in displacement i can make up with boost as long as the motor is strong enough. i would like what ever power i can safely get. i know that you can all get into what a stock block can handle. But wit 500 to 520 to the wheels would be nice but i dont know how reliable that would be. i am somewhere in the low 400s right now with torque around 430s.

I am sure you could get the stock block up to that power but if it were me i would be afraid that i would be buying time before that block split.

yea thats what i am worried about so a fresh engine on 12 to 14 pounds would make me happy. Upper 400s would be nice, i dont beat on the car all the time but i do take it to the track and it will be a daily driver
