make sure its not a 351 W, they look just like a 302 when you bolt that stuff on it.

Not a chance in hell unless hes spraying. Average person with minor bolt ons and a TrickFlow HCI usually put out a little under 300rwhp.

hes probably doing ricer math, the TF H/C/I kit is rated at 350HP, couple with some bolt-on HP claims its easy too see where he gets that number
