If you'll list the pistons, SCR and heads, I'll run it through the DynoSim for you. I just did a 351W with Edelbrock E-Street heads, RPM intake, 650 carb, 1 5/8" headers, 9.3:1 SCR, CompCams 35-234-3 hydraulic flat tappet cam that made 363 hp @5000, 394 ft/lbs @2000, 430 ft/lbs @3500. Is that the kind of street torque motor you had in mind?
