  4. 450hp for $3k is going to be a real challenge. I guess it will depend on what you are starting with, and what you can do yourself. If you find swap meet Cleveland heads, and a good used intake, and a 400m bottom end, it would go a long ways. Getting the compression up, and an adjustable valve train in there seems real important.


    I expect you have looked at this tread already.
