What Kind of Power....
Could one expect from a blown 489 Chev with forged rods, crank, pistons, a static compression ratio of 8.5-1, a good blower cam, Edelbrock RPM heads, an Edelbrock RPM intake, a 950 Race Demon carb and running about 10 psi boost with an intercooler. The blower is a Paxton Novi 2000 centrifugal style.......

This subject comes up a lot and, the only thing you could do is dyno it, that is the only accurate way to tell. I could throw out a number like 800 Hp but, that could be way off.You don't know what you've got til it's gone
