Question any idea how much power im making?

i recently bought a 91 gt that had some mods, and an electrical problem so it hasnt been started yet. I am having someone work on it sometime this week so hopefully i can get it running. but, i was wondering if anyone could take a guess at how much power im making? Just from looking i can tell it has full exhaust, shorty hooker headers, msd distributor, elderbrock CAI, and I think bigger injectors. the guy i bought it off of told us he thought it was cam'd. but im not sure yet, so ill say the rest of it is a stock 302. thanks in advance

If anyone takes a guess at your question they have a 1 in 350 chance of getting it right
