Here is the mods i have lined up for the 74' 351W im building:
.040" over with hyperutectic pistons, 9.5-10:1 compression and moly rings
Edelbrock 650 carb and performer intake
Ported GT40 Iron Heads(well known local guy, mid to full port job)
3 angle valve grind and gasket matched heads/exhaust/intake
1.7 Roller rockers
BBK shorty headers(dont know if they will fit the 351 but i'll try)
V force(flowmaster knockoffs) true dual exhaust 2.5" no cats
stock duraspark ignition

I think thats about it, how much HP can i expect from this combo? i'm hoping for 200-250, Thanks

250 with a good tune is fully possible

Unstable Performance

You left out anything about a cam, but i'm guessing 250-270 at the wheels.

Very similar to the last project i had....the only differences were i had alum. Edel's w/ 1.90/1.60 valves, RPM intake (lightly massaged), and Edel 750 vacuum secondary, mild cam, 1 3/4 long tubes. Easily 325-350hp.

oops, i'm shooting for a cam/rocker combo in the .500 lift range, maybe slightly less like .480 both intake and exhaust..thanks to those who were serious, 325-350HP would be nice but almost unbelievable, the guy who is porting the heads definately knows his ***** so who knows..maybe 300 rear wheel

a good H/C/I on a 351 should put you near 400.
