hey guys - i'd like to get your input on my new engine combo, and maybe your opinions on how much power (roughly) it might make. i know the best dyno is the "dragstrip," or so i've heard some people say. i'm still breaking it in a little, so i won't be able to make it to the 1/8th mile we have around here till a little later on.

60 over 454 - ~468 (4 bolt main)
10.1:1 compression
Holley Double Pumper, 800 cfm.
Weiand Stealth intake
Oval port heads from 1972 SS 402 engine
2.19/1.88 valves
COMP cam - 244/244 .612/.612 (hydraulic roller)
1.7 roller rockers of course
SRP pistons
TRW rods
GM steel crank

B&M TH400
Hughes 3500 stall
GV overdrive
3.90 gears

555 hp., 570ft/lbs. torque

That engine should have a nice flat power band, I would venture closer to 510 hp/530 tq. How stock are those heads? And how did you arrive at the compression ratio?

Honest 500+ for the hp and torque. Cool!!! graemlins/thumbsup.gif
