Do you think I will hit 375rwhp w this combo?

doing a head/cam combo, and was looking to go with the edelbrock heads, cc306, 1.6RR's, hooker LT's, no cats, mufflex y-pipe to a cutout, 58mm TB, 32lb injectors with Fuel pressure regulator, slight LT1 port and match work and a custom tune of course. do you think I will hit 375rwhp with these mods on a 97 TA M6 with 54k miles on the clock?

You could do that, but if i were you i would check out this thread link

Go to the bottem and checkout the custom packages offered. With a smaller custom cam, (ie better gas mileage, more bottem end, all around better under the curve power) you could get the same or more power with a smaller cam.


I would checkout the LE2 setup, would probebly be alot cheaper than the edelbrok heads. I think im going to go with the LE1 setup, im kinda disapointed in my XE224/230.

Thanks for the info, I shot loyd an email to see what he can do for me. I'm trying to have as little down time as possible. Do you know if he sells heads outright or they all have to be sent to him to be "massaged". Is that cam too big or would a smaller one be more beneficial. I'm playing with desktop dyno and I need to know the cfm of the intake @ whatever mm of hg to see if my results are accurate. I'm looking for excellent midrange to very good top end. I only plan to rev to 6k just to keep things tame. I know I can go with more revs and this and that, but I want a nice setup that with as little fuss as possible.

What im going to do is buy a set of used heads for about $200, have them worked, then sell my old heads. I think that would make for minimal downtime.
