You should be around 300-310.
What you get now depends on what exactly you did to the heads and what cam you picked.

I am wondering if the Hooker long tube headers will actually help your setup because of your engine rpm range...I think smaller headers might be better and they could enhance your torque.

the only way to really find out what your car is putting out is to take it to the dyno, have them run a couple of times and see the results, it is not only what you got in the motor, it is also the way it's combined.
hopefully you have some facility close to home where you can do that, it is very reasonable normally 50 to 70 bucks, and you can see right there the result of your mods, besides most of this places can also advice you as to what steps to take next ect. ist's wellspent money
