Default Overall Output numbers



I know this kind of thing gets posted all the time but heres another...</P>


I want to know how much hp my stangs puttin out without getting it dyno'd (just an estimate). Ive got a 302 longblock, B303 cam, AFR 185 heads, Trick Flow Track Heat intake, 70mm tb, 76mm MAF, Shorty unequal headers, Catless pipes, flowmasters, 3.73 gears, fireball ignition, electric fan, andcrane 1.7 rockers.</P>


ANY estimate would be greatly appreciated, I don't want to say what I think in case it might change your opinions... Also, what improvents do any of you thin I should make (different cam?) </P>


Thanks...</P>

Id say 325-350 maybe more if you really tune it out well.

I just put on the shorties and it helped a whole lot... I don't see why I should replace them.

I would think you would a least be in the lower 300 hp range.

longtubes flow MUCH better than shorties. you can probably get 15 extra horses if you switch to longtubes. <IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">

if they arent on the car yet either return them (if where you got them lets you) or sell em. long tubes are much better. and remember you will need new x- (or H-) pipe and an o2 sensor extension.
