  • 300 hp possible?

    I was wondering if it is possible to reach the 300hp plateau without nitrous, super/turbo charging my 3800?

    yes. full intake, exhaust work, cam, port and polish, etc.

      welll.. it would take some serious modifications and a hardened block to be safe.. If you're talking 300hp at the crank you would have to start off with the intake and exhaust, aftermarket ignition system, plugs and wires. You need a fairly agressive cam.. probably about 50hp. The MIS-DIS4 ignition will help with that. Let's see, aluminum driveshaft will help.. various other mods will help you go faster but not necessarily more hp like 3.73 gears, shift kit, corvette servo.. better clutch for you manual guys. Probably some good suspension work to keep the wheels on the ground. And most definitely free flowing heads. All this still may bring you short.. anyone else?
