It'll do! There's a lot of power left in it if I want to get more radical with the cam actually. That's for later. Maybe.

While this will undoubtedly be a handful, it's not my first big power car. My previous Camaro with the procharged SBC that Jody built was around 750-800 crank hp (even though I didn't get to put much mileage on it before selling it). But I did daily drive a 700+ hp twin turbo Porsche for 2 years. It's a different car of course but power is power and you do get used to it and comfortable with it.

It's all relative.... I got bored pretty quick with the first motor in this car (550ish hp) and knew I would need more for my own satisfaction. To some people 450-500 hp is a ton. And that's not a bad thing.

And then there's people like SW.. where 800 hp feels like Weld's Miata.
