Default Performance Predictions

I just ordered some good stuff from Thunder Racing. I bought a set of AFR 205's milled to 62cc and a PREDATOR-Z custom spec'd cam 227/231 .617 .621 @ 110+1 LSA. Everything should be installed fairly soon. I still have to buy some 37 pd. injectors. What do you guys think about this setup? I already have LG longtubes with ORX, Borla Stingers, Vararam. I am looking to put down at least 450whp on the dynojet. You guys think its reasonable? I put down 387 with headers and intake. Also how do you think driveability will be?

I would say that 450 is a pretty reasonable number... but even it it doesnt make that power who care, think about the gobs of HP and torque your going to have under the curve as opposed to you r current setup... congrats bro, keep us updated.

PS: how much you pay for the heads?
