As for people talking about how much HP/Tq the tranny & Rear end are going to take, it's going to be much cheaper to upgrade & not have to find out how much it can take. I keep hearing people say 600hp..600hp..600hp..etc..but nobody knows for sure. Anybody know how they actually find out how much HP & Tq these take? I thought it was the amount of Tq & how hot the equipment got, not only the amount of Tq.
i.e.....There's a huge difference in how hot something is going to get when the engine is at 3500-6500 rpm's for 15 seconds at a 1/4 mile track compared to 3500-6500 rpm's for 20 minutes at a race track.
Sorry for the thread hijack...back on topic.
I agree with people saying it's going to be cheaper upgrading the internals & tossing on a supercharger & upgrading some other things here & there, rather than throwing in an LS7/LS9. The only thing those people are wanting to do is "be different". I'm one of those people as well with my Xtreme, just not with the Camaro.
