The guys from sts turbo said that with just 5 of boost i could see around 900-950chp. Then after talking to them i spoke to the engine builders and they said that the engine should be able to handel 30# of boost pretty good,(i hope it can, it is costing me enouph to build) so i was wondering what chp i could see if i ran around 25# of boost

with that size cam, 3.73's, and 33's, idle should be the least of your problems

we are not going to have the 3.73's , nor the stock tranny, nor the stock rear. Most all of the drivetrain will be scraped.

Hey I lost your email address what is it again I have a clip on my computer that I can email you that has a 408 with a t-rex cam in it. It is a little smaller than your cam well quite a bit as far as lift is concerned but is about the best oyu are going to find not too many people running that high of a lift cam.

The attachment was too big for me to send but I found this though
SDPC 408 iron block with TEA stg 3 6.0L heads running through Kooks LT headers and ORY pipe. The cam is a 248 / 254 615 / 613 113LSA.
