Well just got the estimate for what i want to do to my engine,,, it was 50,000.00 . So now I got to find a way to do things cheaper so i can smoke any L and put a hurt on my wifes vette.... with a budget of 15,000.00 what would you guys do .

never thought i would be asking for more power but please help,I am to slow
 
Roe Top Mount.
On Friday you give L's and Vettes a good run for their money.
On Monday, they are pwnd.

EDITED. Oops. :D

If I had to choose a system today, I would go with the Roe. However I would be asking them to develop and intergrate an Air to Water intercooler into the intake manifold. I know some have said they do not have a heat soak issue with their Roe setup, but still if you can lower the intake charge temp, you will be better off.

From what I have seen it would not be that hard to develop this intercooled manifold.

There you go. My .02 cents worth of input.

Good luck on whatever you decide to do.
 
For 15K you can go SC with high boost because you can also afford forged internals, and as long as you are tearing into the engine go with a cam kit as well, should be able to squeeze it in, providing you are doing some or all of the work.
 
if you can afford to put in a new rear I would go with the Roe Top Mount.

If you want to keep the OEM rear I would send my truck to Boomer for a Paxton. :burnout:

What was the plan?

I would say Roe just because it would only be a 5 hour drive to get there and a 3 hour drive back.
 
Damn for 50K I could build a 2500hp Hemi engine......

I am too curious as to see what it entailed.......
 
heres the attchement, please read all threee pages,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,This is by no means putting down or saying any thing bad about larry, he has been the most pleasent guy to talk to and i have heard his work is of the most best quality,,,,I just did not want forced air ,,, I wanted my truck to be all motor , but I guess I cant afford that

Yeah, I have heard MANY great things about Macedo.
 
No slam at all- Was curious is all.....

I see that here was more than engine work being done. And a ton of labor and machine work as well as top quality parts there too.....


No slam intended......
