$9 grand isnt bad. When comparing to their DE block pricing, I am assuming that we are talking about reusing the stock bed plate / main caps? In which case the final product of this block is actually a little more simple than a DE. That is just how I figure the numbers are working out. If it comes with a billet bed plate as well, that is a heavy group discount.

The weak link in our transmission's is the input shaft. It would be nice if there was an option to upgrade it.

There is. Break out the bank account, billet parts. Or move to a stand-alone to help manage the torque and boost off the line. Y’all spend so much time and effort into making huge power but miss the elephant in the room.

This is alien territory. Going to have to start having 1 off parts being made. Test, break, replace, test, #]^*} shyte, replace until it start to work

With a stand-alone you can leave the line with as little or as much boost as you want. Technically you could launch a 1,000whp Z on stock axles with breaking much. For example leave the line at 6k making only 2-5 psi, the. Aggressively ramp in the boost. All depends if your tuner is willing to work with you while test and R&D. Communication is going to be huge for you if you go this route.

Yeap, I have enough knowledge know how to build such a beast. 1500hp The problem is money. I would need 125k just for the build. The next question, will it live long. LOL 1000hp cars aren't making it off the dyno good at the moment without the Headgaskets popping.

It can take a decent pounding when I broke mine it was after countless powershifting/flatfoot shifting. I use to beat the hell out of it sounded like a sledgehammer almost 20k miles. You have more power than what I had back in the day time will tell how long it will last.
