Hi I'm vince and I'm doing my first HCI swap and just getting excited and was wondering if anyone has an idea of what horsepower I'm looking at , when done the car will have (I will have it on a dyno and tuned) but what I have so far is ( stock 302 lower end, Edelbrock Performer Cam .498 lift, Edelbrock Performer Heads, Edelbrock 1.6rr, Edelbrock Performer 5.0 intake, new timing chain set, 70mm throttle body, 75mm mass air with 24lb injectors , MSD Distributor and MSD ig box, Steeda underdrive pulleys, steeda cold air intake, BBK 190 fuel pump with pressure regulator, Bassani equal length headers, Bassani off road x-pipes , flowmaster 2 chambered catbacks, smog delete, aluminum drive shaft, 4.10s, Pa racing C4 trans 2200 stall, ) plus a few little things here and there! What do you's think?

 

Sounds like you really done your homework, sounds great!

 

When do you plan on dyno-ing it? I'm going to say 290 wheel horsepower and 270 wheel torque. The only advice I can give is have low expectations when you are doing your pulls and you will enjoy yourself more. I was shooting for my mildly built Windsor to get 300 rwhp and felt a little crushed when it fell short :/. The torque surprised me though!

Make sure to post your numbers when your finished.

 

You've done a good job with the parts selection, edelbrock performer setup will work well together and not be overwhelming for the stock bottom end... I'm going to say your going to be 300-320HP at the flywheel which equates to Aprx. 270-290rwhp...you will probably see torque right around 300ft/lbs. Not bad for the street

 

Really? I would expect more horsepower with the heads. I'm running stock heads and I got 233 rwhp and 280+ wrtq @ 2700' elevation on a hot day.
