    Welcome from Portland, Oregon. 1000 horsepower is about 700 more than I would know what to do with. :49:

    :Welcome: from Atlantic Canada! You should maybe ask @braess about parts or shops in Mexico. He bought and built his car while living in Mexico. Maybe he may have some insights into what is available there??

    1000HP is about 900 more than I am used to dealing with... :D

    Good Luck!

    Hello Mexico :
    If you're really SERIOUS about the 1000 Horse Power .. then I'd suggest you forget about the 8" incher , and get a complete Aftermarket 9" rear end. You would be better off with a 33 Spline Axles and above all You should build a
    ROLL CAGE before you do all this stuff to 'Strengthen' the car . That kind of horsepower would really put a hurting on any Comet or Maverick Vehicle since they are all ' Unibody ' construction . You should also consider Sub Frame Connectors . I'd like to see this car when you finish it . If you need any advice just get on the forum again .. there are plenty of people on here that have 'experience' with cars with Horsepower nearing that vicinity .
