375-380. You need to get a pulley and ported tb and then you'll be around 385-390.

Well on my trip to have my car tuned at Rapid I pulled 27.8 MPG untuned! That is with the new heads also. I pulled 399rwhp @ 386rwtq SAE with my TR224 on stock 241 heads. Mods included Lid, Ported TB, LS6 85mm MAF, ASP Pulley, TR224, Yella Terra 1.7, Jet Hot Longtubes, Hooker ORY @ an open QTEC in I pipe. I was also tuned by Mikey. The TR230 mirrows the TR224 power levels until 5500 rpms when it starts to pull away. Figure 10-15rwhp peak over the TR224 with virtually no gain in area under the curve. You will also have to spin the motor higher to make peak power. My TR224 on stock heads peaked at 5950rpms and after the heads at 6050rpms which I really like as I shift for max power at 64-6500rpms. HTH

Look at my mods. I just went 117.61mph DA was around 2800ft. So I think I have right around 400rwhp. My car is full weight also. 3650-3700lbs.

I did 380/372 last year with stock heads, Macs, True Duals, Ported TB and lid. No pulley. This is on a 10 bolt. Same setup but with a moser 12 bolt and 4.10's was 372/363.
