Default Increase HP in 1973 L48 350

I have a 73 L48 350 stock. Bored .30 over. Put new crank in. Added a little more aggressive cam than stock. Added set of flat top pistons. Edlebrock intake. Holley 600 carb. Set of Dart 64cc aluminum heads. Set of Headman headers. HOW MUCH MORE HP CAN I EXPECT?

Welcome to the forum.

The C3 Tech section where you've got a thread is the right place to go to get an answer to that.

Welcome to the forums.

Your HP increase is dependent upon knowing true compression ratio, detailed camshaft specs., intake port size, but you should be able to calculate that increase using that information, and also knowing what you started with.

C3 tech section would be the correct area to post that information, and ask your question.
