Estimated HP

I plan on doing a few engine mods in the next couple months. I was wondering how much HP I can expect to make. My goal is 400 rwhp. How much HP can i make with:

LT1 engine, cc305 cam, polished and ported heads, FIPK, hooker LT's, catback exhaust, and a good tune?

possible to come close to 400 with that package. depends on the heads really. flow numbers of the heads and if they match the cam well. i think it'd be close but depending on how ur car runs you might eek out 400.

You're flow numbers would have to be insane and yo uwould need a great dyno tune....I think with that you'll still fall about 15 HP short.....

if people are dyno'ing 320rwhp with boltons and a hotcam kit, i think he can make 400fwhp with the cc305 and ported heads with long tubes....

Thanks for the info guys. One more thing though. I'll probably end up switching out the stall converter when I do the cam, and switching the gears over to 3.73's. What is the right stall to use with the cc305? The plan is to keep the car fully streetable. Stop light to stop light fun, and some top end fun.

i would guess closer to 375 or so. i think 400hp is a little off with that combo. but should still make for some pretty stout power
