    With the compression ratio and heads, with that induction package and a cam that will obviously work in the high rpm band I am picking this is a circle track motor, so probably around 520 to 535 HP. Oh nd with that roller cam and that much lift your spring pressure had better be a minimum of 200 Lbs seat pressure and run a rev kit as well to keep those rollers on the cam lobe at all times.

    That sounds an awful lot like my old set-up. If I remember right the dyno numbers came in real close to what Kitz said.

    Thanks to all for your input. I was hoping to have between 550 and 600hp so your estimates are close to my goal. I will post my track dyno results when that ever so elusive time comes.

    Thx
