Pure speculation, but I'd say between 355 and 365 rwhp dependent on the tune and the dyno.

my tuner said he could have gotten 8 more rwhp out of it, but i was already tired for the day and ready to go home. besides my goal was 350rwhp. yes the numbers are corrected. oh yea, i decided not to go with the rockers. so my dyno numbers are from full exhuast, vararam, 160 t-stat, and magnecor wires
