Slowly work my way to 500 until the stock internals go poof.

Should I bring 2 jackstands as well??
Also count me in. I'll also bring some burgers and buns.

We will see if the stock internals can handle it or not. Might build up the motor if I really decide to press 500hp. Pretty sure you can push 420 to 440 hp on the stock internals.

I will keep count and let you know what other stuff you can bring. But do plan on bringing some beer. I will have some, but who knows how much we need. We will grill out if weather permits, not unless missr don't mind grilling in the rain

can bring whatever kind of food or drinks. Might want water if it is hot Beer and other junk will put you to sleep or make you pass out.
