It still needs poly bushings, can benefit from coil-overs (if that's what your into), and does not have forged rods. If you go over 700HP, what are you going to do about the 6L80E? Some would be better off finding a gently used V6 car, gutting it, and adding what they really want. Sometimes more is not enough. Ok, for some of us, it's never enough.
Then there is the idea that you can drop 6-7k on a super charger, plop it on a used SS and outrun a Shelby (or ZL1 but I don't like the idea of making other Chevy's look bad) for less than what a used ZL1 is going for.

I guess, spending money I will never get back is not my forte. Personally I would rather take that 5k to 25k you are referring to, with a fully replaced high end suspension system and turbo charging and get myself a second toy, like a Harley.

Thx for the insight.
