Default What kind of hp should i see?

I just rebuilt my engine and added forged pistons. I'm running a Trex cam and I'm adding a set of CNC ported LS6 heads from Texas Speed. What kind of horsepower and torque numbers should I expect to see from this combo?

There is a Trex cam on the Thunder Racing wrbsite.

The dyno above is of a 99 TransAm with stock unported cylinder heads, Thunder Racing's T-ReX v.2 camshaft, and a full package of bolt-on parts, including long tube headers, pulley, LS6 intake manifold, Whisper lid, ported throttle body. Dyno runs were on 93 octane gasoline and a factory steel flyweel.

I would guess the LS6 intake VS LS1 intake may vary 10hp. But then I would hope you gain in the heads.

I would guess at 480hp/430tq
