What kind of power would you guys forcast for my 408? Well, it's final. I ordered everything I need to build a 9.5:1 408. When I can afford to I'm going to add a blower (probably at the end of this summer), but for now it's going to have
-AFR 225heads w/72cc chamber
-ls6intake
-stock tb
-kooks 1 7/8" headers
-3.90 gears (to be changed when the blower goes in)
-238/242 .605/.610 113+4 lsa cam (this was my old cam from my h/c setup, but of course I'll go w/a custom cam as soon as the blower goes in).
Anyways, what do you guys think I can get out of this low compression motor until I'm ready for the blower? Keep in mind, I'm not going to get my pride hurt if someone says 430rwhp or something like that, it's not an n/a motor, just tell me what you think
. I'm hoping for around 480rwhp, is that doable?I'll be throwing probably just a 100-150 shot in the "down" time as well. It'll do for now
