Default Quick gauge on specs

Ok so I had my 408 LQ9 running and made about 600rwhp with a BW S471 turbo.

Had a problem with a valve and snapped a rocker, so long story short, decided to go with an NA setup and change it up a little.

I have PRC 260 LS3 heads, forged bottom end, Holley hi ram, new cam on the way (not exactly sure on specs ATM) and 4-1 headers.

12:1 compression on 98 ATM but going to change to e85 when I can find a good supplier in my area.

What kind of power can I look to find from it, either rwhp through a T56 or through a T400 with 3.9 gears?

I know these things are always subjective but just a rough guess is all I'm after. Either way it will shred tyres and be a fun car

Cheers

I'd guess anywhere from 450-550whp. The T56, a large cam, and large headers will probably get you closer to the high end. A baby cam, non-lockup aout trans, and some 1-3/4 ebay headers would probably put you towards the low end.

Big cam, 1 7/8 headers, T56, 3.9's...
