Default Guess the power output...I didn't read forum rules:)

The project is starting to come togther, hopefully i will have it up and running in the next few weeks.

Started with a stock 87 with SD.

Now am running, stock short block, Doug Herbert heads, 64cc chambers, 2.02 intake valves, 1.60 exhaust, 190cc runners. 1.6 Rollers, F cam, RPM air gap intake manifold, holley 670, shorty headers.

Fairly close to a setup I read about in an article that tested to 400 at the crank. If I get anyone close to that I would be thrilled. Figured any more than 300 rwhp and I would be happy.

Anyone care to make a guess as to the final output?

first of all, this TOTALLY doesnt belong in this section

second, nobody races a dyno.. the power output is irrelevant, get it to the track

and I doubt you'll break 270

Wow, owned by admin again lol

I'm guessing 280 rwhp untuned. 300 rwhp tuned.
