EFI question please

Why 800 hp?? If you are going to put a lot of miles on it, it is best to KISS![keep it simple stupid]. You are looking at a high lift roller cam with long duration and high maintenance. Valve spring psi to control a cam for that much hp is extreme. Do you want to have to tear it apart all the time and check the rollers on the rockers and the lifters. you are going to have to go to an electric or hydraulic power brakes or run manual. My motor is a 496 BBC with 10:1[regular gas] 230/236 515/525 lift hydraulic cam. Closed chambered heads with big valves and ported to the extreme.HP EFI TPI with tunnel ram and 2 4bbl throttle bodies. Hooker comp headers and pypes violator/cutout full length exhaust. Estimated hp is 600.
Motor runs good with no fine tuning. TKO600 and ford 9" with 3:50 gears and 25.5 in tall tires.[275/30R19]
The only thing I would have done was use the 296? cam instead of the 282 comp magum cam. If you would have said it was a week end driver with no miles I would say go for it. If you are planning turbo's later or NOS later, having the motor built with the lower compression /ring gap/ piston design the motor will probably take away all that hp you are looking for.
