Default Newbie build

I have a 94 camaro z28. I have just invested about 5000 and totally have rebuilt my motor and tranny and hopefully will be pushing around 500 hp.

Motor
elderbrock air gap intake
bored .30 over hyp pistons
pacemaker headers
ported & polished rebuilt heads
58mm holly throttle body
high flow +10% oil pump
MSD optispark ignition kit

Tranmission
Completely rebuilt with Hughes performance overhaul kit

Will my stock rear end hold up?

I havn't got it tuned yet. Right now it is till being built should be done Wednesday or Thursday. When I get my car back I will get some pics up. The body is in the works but the motor should be nice to see.

Yea I want it to hold up cause I am out of funds for right now. Do you have any work done to yours under the hood?

okay...they are paceSETTER headers, haha.
your stock rear will hold up a lot better with an auto than with a 6 speed...but the more you launch it, the more stress you put on it.

i'd really like to know more about your build since its extremely vague. please find out more about it and let us know!

new paint and motor wow. im green... lol.. all i have under the hood now is cai and a edelbrock airgap intake with a 52mm tb and 30 lb injectors. tuned by pcmforless. the intake really didnt make much difference but all the little things put together seems to have added a couple hp. this is whats goin in next summer i hope. gotta make money for headers and trany upgrade.

Yes, your right pace setter. I don't happen to be the most kowledgable with everything. Well I got a 292 comp cam. As far as the build I thought maybe the purchased parts woud explain some things. I am unsure on how to explain any more maybe if you gave me some guilines on some info I can get the info. as far as the tranny I have an automatic. They started her up today and fried my starter so I HAD TO GET $180 performance starter. When they finally got her started the torwue broke my brand new u joints. I am just thinking though I just had a defective one. I am new to all this so any advice and info could always be useful.
