laugh2 laugh2 laugh2 8.50's would require a 572 with twins or 3 kits, and it would need a rossler turbo 400 at that weight!

Thanks guys, and Tony- that's definitely inspiring. Especially if it's getting a rollbar, I need to start figuring out a way to cut weight out of it. I'm super impressed at the idea of a stock block, stock stroke 440 with stacked plate kits that lived. You know what you're doing with tuning!!

The Hemi idea is a turn key solution to big power, same with a hellcat swap, but the level of fab work required for either of those is realistically past what I'm willing to undertake. For now I'll start with redoing the interior and getting a rollbar in it, and then keep saving for another motor. While the interior is out for the rollbar install I'll see what can be removed from the doors, the hvac box, seat frames, etc.
