About 350 without the cam, and probably about 375-390 with the cam and tune. Hard to say without knowing what the cam is designed to do. Those numbers would be at the wheels.

Default hp

Thanks for the input..... I was thinking around 400 at the rear tires, but didn't want to be speaking out of line when others asked.

You will need a good tuner though.

I would say a little over 400 at the flywheel depending on if your car is auto or stick you should be in the 370s or so at the wheels.

Get you a 90/90 set up and some AFR 205 heads and you should see closer to 500 at the flywheel

When you say 90/90 you are talking intake and throttlebody correct?
