Whats your exhaust set up? Can you swing for a good cam? Through an AOD with that combo, i'll say 310hp. The track will tell the real story

Silly....that's gonna give you 30 or 40 hp!! Actually, it makes sense that a well machined and balanced motor will make a little more power.....but 30-40 hp? Lets just say its true so that we don't ruin Emagdim's high. Mums the word. Lets just play along.

i by no means think it will give me 30-40 more hp....but i think it will just be a better quality motor because of it

HP figures "out in the air" are annoying anyway... getting a dyno tune will help get the most power from timing and tuning also give what power the engine is making. There a lot of "400hp" cars floating around in the 13 to 14 second range where I live lol

Ive read several articles where torque plate honing has gotten close to 30hp... thats also why alot of those engine short block builders advertise there engines make 30 - 40hp more due to the torque plate honing.

My friend put 313hp to the wheels with AFR185s and Performer RPM Intake. It matters on the cam, and I don't know the specs of your cam, but I do not think it is big enough. I'm guessing low 300s.

You're gonna want more cam than .500" lift.
