Default HP Estimate?

Hey guys... my car is being all torn apart right now because of bent pushrods, collapsed lifters, etc...

well, before all this happened, we were dynoing the car with just a K&N filter, TSP Lid, and SLP LM1 CB... the car has 118k miles on it and dynoed at 301/324 on the dynojet... (keep in mind this was being dynoed with a crappy lifter and pushrod as we didn't realize it till later that night after 8 pulls and a clackity sound )

currentley it is in the shop getting new lifters and pushrods in... I will be replacing the cam as well since it might have been damaged by the lifters/pushrods...

The new added mods are now going to be:

LT's, ORY, BBK SSI 85mm Intake Manifold, BBK 85mm TB, Comp Cams 224/228 114 +2...... Plus a tune....

so what kind HP you guys think it'll pump out after all is said and done...?

Dont waste your money on the BBK.........If you have an ls6 stick with it or if you dont upgrade to that. If you want to shell out the cash you could go with a FAST...

it's all good guys

good to hear 380 is a strong number for me... i'm in college full time and this is my DD so... eventually i'll be throwing some AFR 205's on there too... my goal eventually is to be in the 450 range someday... this will have to hold me over till i get outa college and can afford to do more... as long as the car lasts that long....

it's funny every upgrade i've done has been because something has broken or failed... never because of "want"

Whats bragging rights is the fact youll be over 400 at the crank. Thats bad ***. I hate when **** breaks cause it always puts me a step behind again. But somethings that breaks makes me one step ahead. Confusious say man with a smaller legs always be one step in other mans behind!!!

my co worker put down 403 hp/ 376tq through a 6speed WS6. All he had done was 224/230 .581/.588 114lsa, and a set of Pacesetter's with an ORY and cutout! You may be suprised.
