    Need more info

     



    You wanted to know what to expect from this setup. First, are you talking street use in general or at the strip. Second, need to know which tranny, converter and rear your running. From the engine specs, all your power will be on the top end. Low end might be a little slow unless your geared. This cam and head setup will start to pull about 4,000 rpm. As far as H.P. and torque your engine should make 460 to 500 H.P. with torque at about 475 @ 5500. There is a website that shows all types of small block setup with ratings. I`ll look it up and get back to you. drm184

    You will be looking at the 400hp range. And most likely with the .60 over block you will also be looking at blown head gaskets and extra thin cylinder walls. Unless the block was sonic tested and came out to be a factory freak block. I like to hold 400 blocks to no more than .30 overbore max.

    If I read your specs right, your stroke being 5.650 up from the stock 3.750 you would be at 621.8 ci , I ran the numbers and got this........

    If you are going to use this block have it sonic tested.
    I would also run a 5.7 or 6.0 rod.
    The heads are about 2 sizes to big.
    The carb should be a 750.
