What would it take

I have decided not to be too cheap and I am awaiting a quote from a local builder on a 408 stroker.He says he will get 500 hp from it and I will be more than likely running 3:91 in the rear to start.I will order some cal tracs when I order the kit.I am currently thinking fenderwell headers with electric cutouts.With my big arse this should hit my goal.It turns out that right now the stroker kits are not that much more than if I ordered pistons rods etc seperately Could be a fun summer all motor and ugly as hell for this year lol
