    Lots of variables there. It really depends on the engine builder and how much you are going to spend on quality parts for the bottom end. Do it right and i don't see why you couldn't hit 700-800rwhp without a problem.

    Ive seen over a 1000 rwhp on a 2v block but it had tons of money in it. You need to set a power goal and then talk to your builder and pic the best route to achieve your goal. GL w/ the build and keep us posted.
