425hp is plenty in a daily driver... which can be bought in many crate motors for $4000 not including carb and exhaust..
if you want 500hp build a 383 or a 400(406) make sure yoiu have good aluminum heads..(dart/AFR etc.) A roller cam helps make alot more power and TQ too..Project JUST-N-SANE
84' Camaro Z-28, 355CID,9.0-1 compression, ATI procharger 9psi (over 650HP),T56 6 speed, 3.73 Motive gears! 11.70 at 122mph in the 1/4 while babying the throttle to keep the tires hooked ,with pump gas! (NOW INTERCOOLED)

Cool didnt know you could fit so much tire there
Anyone know how much you can get in front?
I have kinda decided that i want an all alu engine actually, I spoke to Donovan about it and they gave me a price but said I should talk to some engine shops who build those kind of engines a lot.
It is not going to be a Daily driver i just bought a new Mitsubishi Lancer for that...
My old engine should have had 300Hp, but i would guess it had 250 maybe hehe.
So yeah 500Hp sounds nice.
Here in Norway we have 98 Octane gas so maybe the engine builder can take some kind of advantege of that aswell?
If anyone else has lots of tips on how to set up a 2nd gen Camaro most welcome to share
