about 270 @ 5500 (at flywheel) which is probably about right. minus accessories on the front, and driveline your probably just over 225 @ the tire

I don't know how tight of a budget you're on but I hear some heads'll add a nice amount of hp

up the carb, and up the intake..... those two things would make a nice increase and save weight (cast iron intakes are heavy)

I like the stock look. and some porting does wonders for 289 cast iron heads. The carb is sized right and is the righte size up to 8k rpm at 80% ve. I have a stock bottom end so I wont spin it past 6800 so the carb should be fine.
Besides, I dont need to be tempted with too much power.
