Default HP Estimate

How much hp would this combo make?
306 motor balanced and blueprinted.

Main support girdle with a windage tray crank scrapper.Also has that special coating all inside the block. I'm sorry, I forget what it is called but I believe it is supposed help the oil travel faster back to the oil pan to circulate back through the motor.

Stock crank but has been machined and worked to get rid of casting imperfections.

Canton 7qt. Oil Pan

Keithblack hyperutectic pistons, 10.5:1 compression.

GT-40 Alumn. Heads. Slight port job by Pat Riley.They have all comp cams upgraded springs to go with the comp cam in the motor as well as upgraded rataining hardware and heavy duty valve guides and shims for the springs. I believe the valves are 1.64 on the exhuast side and 1.96 on the intake side if I'm not mistaken with a 5 angle valve job.

The cam is a Comp Cams brand. I don't have the exact specs on it but can get them if someone is serious about the car. I know it is around a 544 lift and is under the supercharger and nitrous section of the catalouge.

It has a Holley Systemax II intake

70mm BBK T/B

30lb FMS injectors, 73mm Mass Air, Holley FPR, and a 255 holley Fuel pump.

Alumn. Fidanza lightweight flywheel along with an alumn. FMS driveshaft.

Full BBK exhuast with longtube headers and dumped flowmasters.

Summit digital ignition box, Accel coil, 8.8 FMS plug wires with a MSD cap.
A3M1 ECU.

240-260 maybe? I would go with a msd or crane box instead of the summit brand. If the cam is under the s/c and nitrous section it may not be the best for the combo if you are not running either one.

Sounds fast but hard to tell, i would guess 280ish might rethink the cam if your not running either.
