build a little stronger than stock 350 and give her a 150 shot of nitrous
just because your car is faster, doesn't mean i cant outdrive you... give me a curvy mountain road and i'll beat you any day

As for the CHEAPEST I will agree with the 150+ NOS, but I know the BBC will live longer.

There IS no cheap way to 500 HP. If you are going to do the work yourself, other than the machine work, you can get in the low to mid 4s with a 383 stroker for about $2,000 - $2,500.Ed in Jeffersonville, IN
