I’d like to hear what your best guess of my horsepower and torque are. I’m guessing
Max 300 HP @ 6300
310 TQ @ 3200
My guess is purely based on seat of the pants.


  • Edelbrock victor jr heads
  • Cobra intake
  • 93 cobra MAF/TB/Fuel Injectors
  • Fly cut pistons
  • Compcams 1.7 roller rockers
  • Compcams 1pc hardened pushrods
  • 130 amp alternator
  • King cobra clutch
  • X-303 cam
  • MSD distributor
  • Stock headers w/straight pipes (no smog)
  • Balanced
  • 3:73 gears
  • T5 tranny
  • Only pullies are water pump/alternator

What do you think? That car should be getting out of control if your not paying attention. It reads like it has everything I ever wanted.

I would say your numbers are in the ballpark. The intake is the most restrictive part I would say. If you want to squeeze a little more out of it, Tmoss does a great port job on those.

Wouldn't this be the most restrictive part?
Would stock headers be able to support much more than 300hp?
IDK just asking

I stand corrected. That is absolutely the most restrictive part.
