    Glenn, you answered his question perfectly, it's just that I see the whole scenario a little differently. With the OP asking how to reach 400 hp, the motor you laid out for him would easily eclipse that number, but with all the upgrades that would be necessary to make the whole mess work, I think he would be disappointed. I see $10,000 in parts and labor invested in a slow truck. There are no flies on you buddy, so please don't take offense.
