So where to you get the "sacrifice" on the GM 525 crate motor?

Torque at over 400#s at 3000 rpm and almost 500#s at 4500 rpm

BFG Rival S 335/18s with 3.70 gears and a T56 Magnum would spin the tires all the way deep into 3rd
I think the Hot Cam is in the 480 hp. The 525 hp version uses the ASA cam. Interesting thing is the 480 hp version has more torque and hp up to 4500 rpm in the curves I saw. Depending on how you drive the 480 hp MAY be a better choice.
