Default my first "how much power" thread

sorry for another one of these posts, but i'm curious what you all think this combo would make:

ported FAST92mm
TFS 235's
solid roller cam (specs undetermined, use your imagination)
416" WRE shortblock ~11.5:1 CR
BUILD M6
Moser 9" w/4.11's

this is my tentative build plan if i can get my old stuff and a dirtbike sold let me know what you think!

i think 600rwhp may be a pipe dream, but it's something to shoot for...

the car is pretty much going to be a DD with a race car motor...it will only be driven to cruise night/car shows, to work 1 or 2 times a week, and to the track.

I normally bash these threads but I will not do that to you today. I think you should get about 525-540hp on a stang dyno and 550 to 570hp on a dynojet. Depending on the cam you go with. My 402ci L92/L76 got 490hp not fully tuned(24deg timing) due to a bad slipping clutch on a stang dyno. Your set up should be a strong runner no doubt.
