Default what kind of hp/tq to expect?

with my mods list below, what kind of numbers might i expect with a good tune? sorry if this isnt in the right spot. my block is being rebuilt with all new bearing and arp fasteners. also having some forged pistons and new rings installed. ive been told 400rwhp is attainable but the engine builder says he isnt thinking so, and thats why im asking. thanks

Well autos arent gonna produce the dyno numbers but can make the numbers at the track. IMO, an unlocked auto can easily make 375 whp with a cam that size. An M6 would be closer to 400 whp with the same set-up. If I could guess with your specific combo I think you will be brushing 400 at the wheels. And if the converter was locked (which I'm not saying I recommend) I would say you would pick up another 20 or so.

i laid down 396 through an m6. you should expect either the same or up to 5% less than me.

With a locked converter, unlocked is a whole different story.
