yeah 350whp is not going to happen.. I have a much stronger combo and only made 340whp. But I would say 300-315 with a ton of torque.

I'll bet with those heads, gears and tight stall... high 12's maybe...

shit,if Forrest tunes it it will make well over 350, but really it will make about 320 my guess

I'll bet with those heads, gears and tight stall... mid/high 12's maybe...depending on the weight

The heads, the carb and the headers are going to hurt peak HP numbers but it should make decent torque. How did he get 3.42 gears? Does he have a Chevy rear end in there? Peak HP numbers mean nothing anyway.

What kind of car is it? Is it a heavy convertible weighing 3500# or is it a gutted out LX weighing 2800#? Any guesses on ET are pointless without at least having some idea of what we're talking about.

I'd be surprised to see anything north of 300...and wouldn't at all be surprised to see anywhere from 250 (I know, low) to 280 (perhaps more realistic).
