Low compression 408rwhp?
Ok built my 408ci motor I am looking to see what it should be on rwhp or will I be disappointed.
Setup
408ci 8.5:1 compression (Built for turbo in a few months)
Patriot performance stage III LS6 heads
Custom Cam. 231/226 601/591 115 lsa
Victor Jr intake
Bigstuff3
Exhust is stock manifolds and 3in back from there. (Not worth getting headers since I am getting a custom turbo kit done )
All through a Th400 with 3800 stall.
I am hoping for atleast 450-500rwhp. Am I able to do that being this is a low compression motor built for a turbo?

There is no point in worrying about the "HP" number though as it doesn't mean jack **** unless you are using it to tune the car. The race track is the only dyno you need to tell you your horsepower.

I found some throw away headers. Pacesetters for $280.00 Shipped to the door brand new so I will be ordering those tommrow and that will get me by till that time
Someone told me that my 408 would go lean with the type of cam and running stock manifolds I have due to how much air my motor is moving and can not escape. Not sure how true it is.
Last question. will 30lb injectors be fine for N/A? I have 160lb but there for my turbo setup. or if I try E85 with N/A
