500hp is about all the stock bottom end will support on a daily basis. you can make more then 500 on a stock bottom end but its risky, so if your wanting more then that plan on spending money on an engine rebuild.

WOP would be one of the first places I would go for a high performance build. They have built some of the most powerful 7.3s in the country.

Call em up tomorrow and see what they say...

Personally, I would do this stuff myself. It gives you a bunch of experience and its always fun to tear into it yourself.

I think there full blown race engine is around 15,000. But they can build anything you want.
