Default H/C gains

Tonight i picked up some used stock 243 heads(40000 miles on them),TSP torquer v3 cam,manley dual valve springs(good to. 650 lift),titanium retainers,seats,push rods,TSP ported ls6 oil pump,walbro 255 fuel pump,36 lb injectors.Everything new except heads and fuel pump. I got it all for 1200.
Just curious on what gains to expect, current mods are in signature. Thanks
Also im going to get a 3600 stall.

I'd guess around 400 rwhp with stock 243s, possible potential for 415-420 rwhp if you have some CNC work done to them before the swap. The stall will cost you power on the dyno, but you'll have to see how much.

I have the same exhaust you have. After the cam swap it goes from loud to insane.
