Default Power to the wheels?

Ok, so I started off with a stock 99 SS 6spd. It will be finished and on the dyno come late march. What do you think it will put down, just so I dont expect too much.

Engine/drive mods:

Ls6 intake
Slp lid
Slp headers/y-pipe
Magnaflow CB
Slp 25% underdrive pulley
New plugs/wires
Plus a dyno tune

I am hopeing to be around 330-350hp to the wheels, possible?

ha, I have a 99 trans am with similar mods minus the pulley. I think your expectations are within range and I will also be having my car dyno'd end of March. I had a 98 z28 with MAC mids and a weiand intake, but no tune put 326 to the wheels.

My current mods are:
Slp lid
Ls6 intake
MAC headers w/custom y-pipe (carsound cats back to a cutout b4 the axle)
Tuned by a friend in Austin

...it'll be interesting to compare results.

as long as those are long tube headers in your list and you have a good tune i see no reason it wouldnt lay down 340-350 on a dynojet

To update the topic, I ended up with 333 hp and 333 tq on a mustang dyno. I looked back and my 326 hp number with the z28 was on a dynojet, so all in all, I'm happy with how the TA ran.

What did you end up with blknSS?
