Arrow SBE 5.3 hp. guestimate??

Hey guys im almost aready to fire this thing up and get it on the dyno! The plan is to spray a 150-250 depending on how it responds. The car has a full standalone in it, which i plan to use c16. heres a rundown of the motor..

SBE 5.3 fresh rings/bearings
hv oil pump
cts-v pan
completey rebuilt 862 heads, cut .030''
comp pushrods
Comp 918 beehive valve springs
ASA Camshaft 525/525 226/236@50 110 lobe sep
Head studs.
mls headgaskets
Edelbrock Vic Jr intake
msd 6010
Mighty Demon 750 4150
dynatech 1 7/8 longtubes

JW built th400 T brake,
revmax 3600 custom billet convertor
moser built 8.8

96 Mustang 3000lbs
Team Z everything in the rear
UPR everything up front

This motor will be ran on 93 pump gas. This is a very budget minded build as it is my first LS motor. Depending on how this motor is i may build a
6.0/l92 setup on the jug or go turbo, who knows lol. Anyone have a guestimate of what it might make on motor?? would love to make around 350ish and then hit it with the juice!

That could make up to 350 rwhp. The auto and converter will goober up any results compared to a stock converter or manual. Then *** the nitrous size and that will be a give or take on top of the NA results.

I'd swap for a different can unless this is a daily driver with 10 degrees more duration on both sides and about .080 more lift you would be 400+ at the wheels

Highly doubt a th400 with converter will allow that to hit the 400rwhp mark on a dyno.
