Anyone have any ideas on the cost for the following or give recommendations?

1) F1 (~$1,400 - $2,100)
2) 60# injectors ~$300?
3) Built shortblock ~$3,000? (Or should I just get forged pistons / crank / rods / ARP studs and keep the block?) Looking for the best value here.
4) I imagine I would need to build-up my tranny a little bit, but that can be considered later.

Would like to be in the 525-600 rwhp range on 91 octane (if possible). Thanks to anyone that replies.
The head unit alone was $2700.00
Im using 160s i think Cory is running 83s
Use your existing block and that number should be fine
I was using a TKO600 with a Spec 3+

Not going to be able to run 91
Im using 93 only because i have a stand alone
Cory runs 100

Im not saying it cant be done , but is it safe ? Or is it worth it ?


The biggest issue with the F1 is belt slip . I converted to the 8 rib and tried multiple tactics . I personally wasnt happy enough with the results . An auto will work much better with the 8 rib then a manual .

Im the Cogboy as M1M puts it . Oh well you dont hear me complain about belt slip or breaking belts anymore .
