So I picked up a 65 with a a little 289 in it. I plan on starting the engine rebuild here soon and was hoping you experienced guys can tell me what type of horsepower I could realistically obtain. I plan on stroking it to 347 and upgrading to a 4brl carb. I'm also a huge fan of boost and was thinking about getting a Paxton supercharger to keep everything under the stock hood. Without the cost of the charger ($4300), what do you think the grand total would be? Horsepower and torque? Is about 500 at the flywheel a crazy number or what? I really have no idea what to expect out of this build. What are your guy's recommendations?
