Default HP gains off of ported vette heads...

They are a set of stock Vette heads around a 93 i think, i am going to port and polish them to the spec i feel comfortable, anyone have an idea of what the gains will be with the intake matched also? I am hoping for 15-20 HP, anyone ever dyno before and after with something like this? I know i would benefit greatly from a cam swap, but the car simply over heated and i have the extra heads laying around.

Well you won't gain a lot with the stock cam because it won't let in enough air. Might be good for a few hp though.

With the 1.6, which from that thread give on avg of around 10hp + port probably only like 5hp from it, but the polish will help, so another 5hp or so. WITH 1.6RR I don't see 20hp being a problem.
