Default N/A power of a 5.0?

just as the subject says, what can a 5.0 get out of N/A? I mean normal H/C/I, and exhaust kind of power, not full out race?

you could prolly get around 300 or more hp but it just depends on what setup you pick I guess

if your talking about a 347 though you can make 350-360 easily. ruger has a 347 with 373rwhp with boost friendly compression. my old 347 would have been around 360rwhp with boost friendly compression also

I have never run mine on a dyno, butI used the on-line dyno on UPRs website and my car was estimated at 386 rwhp. My compression is 10.89:1 but I still run pump gas. My timing is at 16 degrees andI can drive it anywhere I want to go and run the cold air.
