I would say ~675 WHP with that setup. For reference, I have similar mods on my Z16 ZO6, but with stock 243 ported heads, and ID 850 injectors, and put down 709 WHP with a 3.8" pulley, which produced 13 peak PSI.

^ Agreed! I'm curious to see what the OP's peak boost is... He is running a smaller puller than me (I am running a 3.8"), and I maxed at 13 lbs of boost (709 WHP). Question for Josh @ A & A... At what point would it be advisable to switch to an 8 rib setup from the stock 6 rib setup when pulleying down? 15 PSI?
The final numbers will also be dependent on what the OP spins it to - my 709 WHP was to 7000 RPMs, and it was pulling all the way. So, if the OP stops at 6500, it will be lower for sure. Should be able to reliably run to 7K with a built bottom end.

It previously made 10lbs with a 4.0 pulley, so I'm assuming it'll make around 13-14 with the 3.6
I was planning on running a smaller pulley, but it's just my little DD with a stock rear & trans so I didn't want to push the rest of the car too much haha.
I was hoping to see at least 650whp, so I'm glad to see everyone thinks it'll break that!
