I am wondering how much power I can get with a budget of about 6000$, and what ells I should get to back up the power (all this under 6000$). Please give me your input
Welcome,For 6,000$ you should be able to get a good custom engine that would make 450+ hp.
Shop around local,check the internet etc.
