Default Help calculting horse power...

I have a 1996 Pontiac Trans Am, it has 145k miles

Mods are as follows

Pacesetter longtube headers
Cc503 cam
Comp cams 918 springs
4.10 gears

The car hasent been tuned yet and I haven't installed my 1.6 rollers, give or take how much horse power and rwhp should I be runnin with only those three mods, also how much will I be running after I get it tuned and put on the 1.6 rrs?

I'm assuming you have a 6 speed since you installed 4.10 gears.
I would hope that you have a CAI installed, that should have been mod #1.
I can't say how much power you are making untuned...I wouldn't run it hard until you do get it tuned.
I would say that once you get your tune and 1.6rr's installed, that you could make 330-340rwhp through a T56.

Similar to the setup I'm putting in.
