I had to look up the specs for the cam, and I did not have any airflow files for stock BB heads so I used the Holley street avenger BB heads for flow. The flow is below and I think it is attainable with a good port job.



The Graph and Configuration used are up next. It looks like it will be a torque monster, definitely a fun motor.

Thanks!! That's much better than I expected. The machinist told me 475-500hp, but he didn't have desktop dyno running.
