In my opinion your this deep into it ,you might as well add the 3 to 500 bucks and have the aluminum polished and chrome the steel to really top it off and make it look like a 10,000 dollar motor!!!
Should be just as fast as the factory z-28 and gt mustangs and impala ss,just do not try to follow them thru any turns
You went with forged pistons,if I remember right?Theres always a 150 hit of N2o to make up for any lack of performance and if you plumb it in just right you could make use of the cooling effect it has to lower the intake temp further increasing power,you just need to use more to get the same effect using it in that manner.I can see 400 to 450 on the dyno with spray.I am sure that will be more than enuff for that car unless you go all prostreet with it.
I would also detail the engine bay real well to make it look even nicer and make sure to use all new hoses /hose clamps and put all the wires in new plastic cover thingys. 50 to 75 bucks in this area really pays off!!
I didn't get the forged pistions, I ended up getting Sealed power 2.3L HSC Tempo/ Taurus pistions, which are cast flat tops. final compression will yeild 8.81:1, perfect for 8 PSI, which will be intercooled also of course.

I'm going to have the motor look like a million dollar engine. cast aluminum valve cover, black with polished fins. Daytona yellow for the engine, with clear coat. aluminum hi temp for the exhaust manifold/ up pipe. and all of the turbo piping will ither be daytona yellow, or black. will have black turbo couplers.

I'm going to spray the engine bay b4 I drop the motor in. flat black.
