how difficult and costly would it be to build a 700 hp 3800? I'm assuming about 5000 for the stattama turbo, what else would be needed and maybe an estimate.
 


I'm actually not worried about the trans, thinking about doing this on an 4th gen F body Camaro or Firebird. The 4L60 can be built to hold ~700 hp for like 3500 dollars. There is no E85 here, so I would probably have to do a methanol shot.

Do you think it would hit 700 with the turbo, heads, cam, bigger injectors and methanol?

I would PM that twin engine guy from Canadialand. He made a GP run like 10's on stock injectors and stuff. He might be a valuable resource.
 


It could be done with a nice nice turbo, heads, cam, big Intercooler, fuel would be a problem. E85 would be ideal; however, you could run meth / race gas...
 
Yeah if RWD your fine, they make adapter plates to bolt up TH400s and what not. The trans wont be a problem. Money is your only issue now
 


that would be cool but the 4l60 will be easier to use since its what will come with the car. I still dont have the camaro. this is just a what if scenario
 
Go with a s/c and turbo I have all the confidence in the world u could hit 700 a built 4L60 can handle it and would be better for a duel purpose street strip /turbo 400 if strip only or even turbo 350.
 


Twin M90's ... be a real man. ;)
