All it needs is a iron block with 4 inch bore and 3.9 inch stroke and some stage 3 heads and a FI cam and voila 700 hp at all times and zero problems. Now all I need is $20k or so and I can do the same thing with my car.

Yeah. I would not be surprised to see them come off.

Someone was talking about groving the heads and block. I would think you would have to start over to do that being it would increase your compresion to greatly. Then again I am no engine bulider.

The kit alone yes but I am talking block\rotating assembly and CNC heads. The Iron block for obvious reasons along with a forged bottom end. 392 stroker build + kit plus a 12 bolt rear would be about $20k plus or minus.
