Nowhere near 475-500 at the tire, maybe 400 if your lucky with that cam intake setup, the heads will not support the above in the least

Here is something to try. Take a soft drink straw. Place it in your mouth and run the 1/4 mile only breathing through the straw. That is what the the 393 will be doind with those heads on it. It will work sure but it will be choked. Cubes need heads period.

there u go perfect and honest answer.


and to the op nowhere near 500 rwhp more like 330-350 on a good day, but really rethink the head/cam selection and u will be rewarded with much better results

the exhaust port on those D00E's will seriously limit you if it makes more than 385 at the rear tire i would be surprised. plus a weiand stealth intake would not be my choice or the edelbrock cam.
