Lil bench racing...
I was just wondering about what HP a certain setup would get. I would love one of those programs where you input the engine info and it gives you approximate values but IDK where to find them.
So on a 10.5:1 427 stroked 400 sbc with AFR 195 comp port matched to a highly ported HSR and a matched cam what would be my HP and TQ.
I want crank numbers as thats what I will get it dynoed at the first time when I eventually build it.
I was hoping for 525-550 with a HR cam spinning to 6200-6500rpm.

Your combo is similar to an LS7 which is rated at 505hp at 7000rpm. The LS7 heads with the cathedral ports are more efficient than the AFR heads.

i have a 383 that makes a little more than that with a similar flowing heads to the 195 eliminator comps. but i am 12.3:1 compression and a 245/253 with 612/612 on a 107. so i am sure with the right cam and intake it would be fairly easy. 88blackz51 is building almost the same engine.. but i don't know how long it will be till he is tuned. but he is expecting 550-600hp
