with a different cam choice it'd make it a lot easier and with a tune, I'd say over 300 is easy

Not to be a party pooper, but with an auto, there is no way you'll hit 300rwhp. You may make 270rwhp and that's about it. Plus, the GT-40's are on the lower performance spectrum, as far as aluminum heads are, and the cam is old technology, although still decent. I made 271rwhp and 311rwtq through an auto with TrickFlow heads, Trickflow Stg-1 cam and an un ported GT-40 intake.

270rwhp. Your heads not one of the best. An E cam is not going to make as much power as a good custom ground cam.

Well if i can at least hit 270 ill be happy, just shooting for the 300 mark. i do intend to change my auto to a five speed, and the reason why i picked the cam and heads is because ill get an employ discount on them, if not i would change my set up. thanks for the input btw guys apperciate it

Where do you work? If you don't mind me asking, I live in Washington and I've been looking for a decent local place
