Lol I'd love to see a 950 hp 5.3 anyways

Maybe running alcohol with a full forged motor and 20+PSI. I don't even think that would do it.

What do you have planned for trans and rear end?. You will need to have forged internals but if you going that far start with a larger block, or bump it up to a 5.7.
