I'd say about 390-400rwhp.
You'd be looking at about 480-490hp at the flywheel.

Thats a nice mod list! Im no pro, but after what I've seen on other cars I'd say around 420 rwhp. How much did all those mods cost? I want to do something similar to mine.

I'd also say 420, that dana and the a4 are gonna hold you back a little.

I just dropped in an LS6 with ported heads, 224/228-114 cam, Kooks, ORP, ported TB, UDP, Dyno-Tuned running thru a Moser 12 bolt 4.11's

412/400 rw... but that was on a dyno known to be low (about 10hp/tq) on a 90 degree day with high humidity and I found my tires to be 6 lbs low so...

mods are similar - I'd say you are looking at approx that up to 420-425 rw.

horsepower doesnt mean anything, what matters is what you do at the track i'll say 11.4s if you can drive

What I think matters is how your car runs, where the power is in the power band and whether you can't wait for the next chance to get behind the wheel .... but that may just be me.
