It would be cheaper to just get forged internals, a trans upgrade and converter, and fuel system upgrades. Then you can crank up your whipple to 15 lbs. You can probably do all that for less than 10K
I can buy the GT500 motor, pull my motor, install the new one, and work out the wiring for LESS than $10K.
