Nice car - lets see more pics!

How much horsepower is too much? Over 700.

I have been down that road and worked my way up from 350 to 525. There's very little difference in drivablility but a big difference in fun.

The ZF can handle 600 with the basic config and good half shafts. And 525 hp is very steetable with 10.5 compression. Since you're starting from scratch, keep in mind that you get used to HP real fast.

Less is less. And more is more. Period.
