As I start my project of swapping transmission over to an stick,a user brought up that the new trans Nv4500 can handle more power. now that has me toying around with ideas to gain more power, I'm thinking boost,Has an one Attempted an twin Turbo 5.7Hemi, if so dose anyone have dyno specs. Now I know I'm gonna have to swap the internals to be forgerd to handle the boost, and while the motors apart I might aswell have an bigger Camshaft like an procomp278.

Word of wisdom... get the trans sorted out first, then do the engine. The last thing you want to be doing (and issues I went through myself) was having too many things causing potential issues and not knowing for sure what's causing them. Biggest mistake I made with my build was doing a new block, blower, suspension, and fuel system all at once just 'because I was already in there'

I'm sure the rear end, driveshaft, half shaft, and the suspension will need to be rebuilt or swapped out as well as the transmission. BIG MONEY!
