Don't know about rear wheel, but brake hp is going to be about 365-375Hp.

I would go with tuned long tubes, though. All that expense of Heads and SLP you will need something better than shorties to gain the full benefit.

Heads my be over kill. Contrary to lots of opinion, the Corvette heads are quite good. Also, without better exhaust the 52MM TB may be a waste?
