I dont know of any 1000whp 370's let alone any that have been run on anything other than a dyno and pushed into shows. Many things are claimed as indestructable or good to "XXXX limit" by GTM, but that is there M.O.

a 1000whp car is over the top. 2000whp equates to what..roughly 2400whp at the crank? That seems a little silly to me. I have no idea how you'd maintain any kind of drivability in a set up like that, assuming its even possible...

LOL!

its a solid build with a lot of new parts. He should hit 1000 on a DJ no problem.

People are feeding his head with thoughts of a 220mph pass at the Texas mile. thats what i think is funny. AMS's sweet GTR "only" barely broke 200mph.

even funnier, is this I believe congratulations are in order to Mike for building a one of a kind 370Z

It should read "I believe congratulations are in order to Mike for opening his wallet real big on a one of a kind 370Z"

The owner of this car does not think its ugly and i think that's what matters here, I agree he has some interesting choices but at the end of the day, it is his car and his hard earned money .. not yours

how do you know? have you done testing showing your stock mani is holding back your immense HP?

A NA manifold is not meant for FI and a FI manifold is not meant for NA. There's no 1 solution for both, so make up your mind what you want...

toner123, go back and read any GTM or sleeved related thread in the past 7 years. After you are done, come back and apologize for obviously not knowing $hit and trying to act like you are "trying to learn"

The time to learn was back in the day, the lesson for this guys Z will be worse (new car more $$$$) than the one many others and myself learned years ago.

Run along now...

well....without taking into account dyno differences... still kick myself for not doing 1 more pull to make 907 on the dynodynamics

well I'm a noob compared to many of you here..so no biased drama from me.

Sam/GTM, why are you not defending yourself and post up the proven horsepower claims that everyone wants??
