Default Can I get a HP guestimate from this combo....

Just a rough guestimate is fine......I'm just trying to see if I can build a stock-bore/stroke 6.0 that will make more power than a Magnacharger RADIX supercharger (for less money hopefully....this combo would cost me $3800 and some change), a RADIX will do 365ish to the tires on a truck like mine (and cost $4800)...you think this combo will equal that ??

Headers...............Dynatech SuperMaxx 6.0 Header System (already own)
Exhaust System....Magnaflow Silverado SS Side Exit w/ 4" Tip
Cam....................VHP "047" Grind - 210º/218º .531/.531 112LSA (may go *slightly* larger with this)
Heads.................Patriot Stage II LS1 Assembled Heads - 2.02/1.57 valves,
Block...................Stock bore and stroke 6.0
Patriot springs, keepers,and retainers
Rocker Arms........ Stock LS1 Rocker Arms (already own)
Pushrods.............Manley 7.400" Hardened Pushrods
Oil Pump.............TSP Ported LS6 Oil Pump
Timing Set...........Rollmaster Double-Roller Adjustable Timing Set
Transmission........4L80e

Thanks....

Post in truck section.

In F-body I would say yes and a hell a lot more torq with that cam.VHP .047
A lot less tuning, maintenance issues. But in a truck, dunno.

An engine is an engine....all that will be different is the tranny and the rear-end (figure 21% loss instead of 17%)

Don't forget the BIG 20's, gears, CR of heads etc...

You could achieve ~380rwhp A4 with that combo depending on head CR.in F- body
