Estimated HP with this set up? a friend of mine spun bearing in his '98 Camaro and cracked the block and I have this 2001 engine laying around for quite some time yesterday I toke off the 241 heads cleaned them up and was thinking of hand porting them by a friend and mill them for more compression the engine has already .75mm Speed pro pistons H868 whats the maximum lift we can go with milled 241s? we might get Thunder racing 224/224 cam the car has long tube headers and full exhaust,air lid and shift kit he will put 3.73 soon and port the stock TB the car went 13.2 before so what estimated HP with the new set up? E.T in 1/4 ?
I would say with the stock gasket and 241s you could mill .030 pretty safely if going with a smaller cam like a 224. Don't know how dead set you are on the thunder racing cam but a tsp 224r which uses comp xer lobes makes slightly more power and can be had for cheaper if you search around the sponsor websites for deals and specials. Estimated hp I would say 380 at the tire and you can run 12s if the car is setup decently.
