Post How much HP?

I an fixing to get vortec heads and a XE 256 comp cam put in with my car along with the intake manifold. How much HP to the rear wheel will I be pushing, with just these mods? How much HP will I need to run with LT1 and LS1's becuase I know that my car wheighs more than them both?

Thanks adam
Also do you think 500-600$ will cover the labor for all this work?

What motor are you putting these things on and FOR GODS SAKE POST THE CAM SPECS!!! There are a bunch of XE256 Comp cams.... not just 1. I have a 270H or whatever but I bet you don't know the specs until I tell you. Cam specs are real important is all I am trying to say. For labor to install all that...That May be enough.
