Ask yourself these questions (or tell us the answers if you already know them)

- Whats the goal of the car? Do you wanna drag race, autox, or simply a 600whp dyno queen?
- Why 600whp? Why not 550whp or 650whp? Do you have a certain trap speed or ET you wanna reach?
- What dyno are you gonna be using?

Set aside $30-60k to get this project done. ~$30k in parts and $30k in labor.

You know you can get a used z06 for ~$20k now right
This is exactly right on the MONEY, to get you to where you want to be, but wish I knew where to find a z06 for $20k
