so far the set up will be:
edlebrock rpm performer II intake manifold, mighty deamon 650 carb, trick flow stage one cam (Duration 275/ 279, Lift .499/ .510), the stock heads ported with 1.7 roller rockers, also with larger valves and springs, 4.10 gears, 2.5" exuaghst going through dyno max 2.5" bullit series mufflers, and crank and alternator under drive pullies, electric fan, three core radiator, 160 degree thermastat, bbk eaqual legnth headers. Thats pretty much it....if you could give me an estimate, that would greatly apprictiated!
