Expected HP

Just wondering for knowledge's sake, what power would be expected from the following. I know it will vary and depends on other factors too, but try to just give a reasonable range.

LT1
Headers, cutout
CAI
Machined heads and custom ground cam
All the free mods

If the cam was ground to do mid to high end power.. Thanks guys.

HP is going to depend alot on the heads and cam and what kind of shape the bottom end is in. I'd say anywhere from 50 to 150 hp gains over a bone stock LT1 depending on the package.

Ps. Don't forget tuning.

330-360 to the wheels...of course depending on port job and cam specs...

Without knowing the specs on the heads/cam...anywhere from 325 to 425 RWHP.

Would it be too much to hope for to get 350RWHP out of this setup:

Stock LT1 plus:
LT Headers/cutout, CAI, free mods, LT4 Hotcam Kit, and mail order tuning?

It's not impossible. I'd say it'll probably be around 330-340 with bone stock heads.

Guessing with the information posted is a crapshoot at best. Anywhere between 300-360rwhp.
