I would guess HP@ 250-270 and in the Q i would say auto high 13's and stick with good launching clutch high 12's but i really am guessing need to run the car and find out, that is the best way. Horse power estimate is on the low side. you need some free flowing heads get you up to 300HP.

with all that some more flowing heads would be nice. gt-40s work well with the cobra intake but if you get them dont put them in stock. get them ported and some bowl work done...

Nor do I really... I had some gt-40s in mine and wasn't happy so I had then ported polished and bowl work done on em and ran low 12s with em. They just ported nicely with the cobra..
