612 Valve Srings
138 Ultra Light Weight Chromoly Retainers

391 Hardened Valve Locks
720H Hardened Pushrods
Cloyes True Double Roller
PCM tuned by http://www.pcmforless.com
Electric waterpump
Flowmaster 3' catback
SLP CAI
MSD wires
NGK tr6 plugs
de-screened and ported MAF

and the cam is a 221/227 duration .542"/.560", 114lsa comparable to the cc305. im just looking for a ballpark estimate. thanks

If the cam is the only change, and you currently have a stock cam, I'd guess you will gain 20-40rwhp. How much power will depend on what it's making now.

I would say your not going to see any real gains till you put headers on the car
