Default can't wait

Til June-ish that is. Currently my 81 camaro has a 267 w/ a small cam, alumium intake, holley 600 4B (yes, I know it's too big - thats why I had to jet it down), and 1 5/8" headers. I have a 79 350 that just got back from the machine shop. .030 over, hypereutectic pistons, moly rings, blah blah.., comp cams high energy street 260H cam, using the stock heads that have are being done at the shop(76cc, 1.94/1.50) until I can get a good set of aftermarkets, and a 50k volt billet distributor I got off ebay for 75 bucks brand new. I think I'm gonna try out the RPM Air gap manifold (the one thats idle-5500), buying a aluminium radiator, and use the same headers and carb since they're both fairly new.
I'm gonna be using my 350 trans, and am gonna put in a convertor w/ about 1000rpm's more stall than stock, and the stock 8.5 rear w/ the 2.56's (upgraded eventually also....)

My questions - seem like a fairly reasonable combo (as far as using the heads, cam, intake?) Suggestions ?

Any idea what I'm gonna be puttin out (power-wise) ? I plan on gettin it dynoed when all said and done, but would appreciate a rough guess-timate in the mean time.


I'll be postin pics.......
