Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project

1500 is not enough to do a motor correctly in my eyes.

There are some things you have to think about while setting your goals.
You will not make over 450 at DB without addressing the single fuel pump.
When you start making that much power, you have to decide what clutch setup you're going to run.
I doubt you transmission will take a lot of abuse making 500 @ DB for very long. Ask and I'm sure more than one person on here will verify that one for you.
List can keep going on and on.

I'd try and keep it to a stock rebuild, keep 16g, put some corn in it, and get it tuned by Shane. That way if anything breaks you might still have money left over from not putting it all in the motor to fix things.

Just my long .02. Good luck with the build!
