~300+ish rwhp.

MPG will drop because you wont be able to keep your foot outa the throttle...LOL.

Let me know if you have any questions. I have some good MHS/CMS head & cam combos!

You will end up 295 -300 rwhp - I would put that 2K towards a blower so you can have 370-380 rwhp for 3500 bucks.

380 > 300 rwhp and worth the extra money.

Depending on your budget I'd go with CMS stage 2's and some nice MHS heads...with those and a solid kick *** dyno tune, you should have one quick ride.
