Well I can't say for sure, I'm not an auto trans guy but at the power level we're talking about I dont see an issue. Its just a few more ponies than the E-Force.
The cam will dictate the stall and dont the auto's come with coolers already? |

I was looking at a 68 Camaro a few years ago and called Hagerty and another specialty Ins carrier looking for declared value coverage. I was found out these types of policies are very restrictive. You can't drive the car to work, to the theater, to the mall, or even park it in your friend's driveway. You could take it out to dinner, out for a pleasure cruise on the weekend, and even to an overnight car show, but you basically have to be with the car. This is how they can offer the coverage. I don't even know if they insure newer cars.

blower then 416/418..... boost is addicting!!! but a N/A 416 will not be as exhilarating as a blower car. but its preference. i have a vortech that i LOVE and im make over 600 to the wheels on a safe tune so... but later i will turn the boost up and forge the internals

I would rather have the 416. I have had a SC vehicle before making just over 500 rwhp. I loved it. I have never had a NA car with that type of HP. I personnaly think the NA engine is the more rare of the two today not the other way around. Additionally, I would rather buy the parts and do the work myself. I want to keep my stock block as well. If I had the money I would do the NA 416.

To be honest I wonder if NA wouldn't have been a better way to go. For some reason FI seems safer/cheaper. Ignorance is bliss?
