No matter how right you get it up top with injectors, timing etc., it's the bottom end that has to be tough enough to take 600+ HP. You'll need an aftermarket magnafluxed block, a good forged crank, H-beam rods and hi-end forged pistons. Then, work the heads for maximum pressure sealing (O-rings?) for over the top HP. Hell, my 418W with 478 RWHP is one jumpy sports car on an open road. Enjoy what you have unless you're going to campaign the car at the drag strip.
