    step down one on that cam for more bottom end, and I'd guess HP to be around 335....but that's just a guess.

    Do use a smaller cam. If you're going to use a small carb and a stock intake, I suggest nothing more than 262 degrees of duration at .005". You're motor will make the same horsepower as the engine with the larger cam, but will also make much more torque.

    ok got it smaller cam. thanks guys
    what do you think a 3500 pound camaro with a stock th350 and say 3.73 gears will run in the 1/4 mile?
    and would 3.73 gears be good or should i go to a lower gear?

    20 horse off ain't bad, I couldn't have guessed that close. Dyno 2000 has flaws, some variables are basic, and it dosn't calculate inline engines very accurate at all ( has to do with the single runner ) which is where I need my calculations to be correct, it says within 7% accuracy, I'd like to find a person with a dyno'd engine and get the specs so I can varrify it's accuracy
