Hooker headers and finally a tic street fighter 3500 stall wondering what kind of rwhp I should expect from a set up such as this

Big money for what I would consider "small" upgrades, and I don't say that to be an ***. Just giving my $0.02. I can't take a guess on power, but I will say:
That's a lot of money for your exhaust and Throttle body. Some will say I'm crazy, but you could save a lot of money there and go with these alternatives - and there won't really be a difference in power using these alternatives:
1) Fi-Tech 102mm Throttle Body comes with *ALL* the necessary provisions, and they make a cable driven one. I simply don't see the point of spending more than $200 on a throttle body. Again, someone will come in here and defend that Nick Williams piece to death, but it was a cost I simply couldn't justify, by any means. $150-ish if I remember correctly - and works flawlessly. Never even had to drill holes.
2) Speed Engineering make an amazing True Dual exhaust kit, as well as headers.For both headers and full true duals kit $800-ish
Hopefully I'm not breaking some rules posting these other pieces. If I am, well then I guess I'll get a warning.
Thanks,
Andy

Holy crap, that head/cam package is more than I have in my entire setup lol.
I 2nd the Speed Engineering exhaust.
I would look for another converter besides that overpriced TCI crap.
I also 2nd the throttle body comment.
Your mod list there will give you a little better than about 1 HP per $100. That's not very good.

I wonder what his HP goal is. Agreed, a ton of money for a lot of high-dollar parts where the return is not great.

I second this !
I would highly recommend not going with that inefficient garbage converter. And like said, OVERPRICED.
Here are a few converter companies that you would fair o so much better with.
- Yank (What I run)
- Circle D
- FTI

Which car? Year, make and model. You mentioned being legal. Do they smog check?
