ummm....you'll be close "IF" you do a LSX swap.

Next question,

Do you have the motor yet or not?

well i think them motors are easy to get to 500 hp. you can get a fast intake and throttle body. and then some good cams. i think hot rod magazine did it and it made like 512hp on the dyno. but you might want to look that up.
