Newbie (sort of) needs some ideas...

did you read the HP figures on that Mopar Muscle article I posted? I know it was an expensive build, but dammit man.

Ya with 13-1 comp! That is a cool article,im friends with Romeo,the guy who built it. A member on slantsix.org is running the manifold/fuel injection from that set up. You can make close to that power with less exotic parts for sure. If you really want to go nuts look into the long rod 225.
