Current numbers are 368 RWHP on a mustang dyno with a half *** tune. What does my current number convert to on a dynojet? 380? 390? 400?
I have all of the mods in my sig, and I would like to slap on a set of AFR 205 heads (66cc chambers). What kind of numbers would I be putting down at the rear wheels after the install? I plan on getting a mail order tune from Jeff Creech or possibly a dyno tune from a reputible shop after the install.

Depending on your tune and bolt-ons, the AFR 205s should give you a solid 30-40 rwhp gain along with better streetability. The amount you mill the heads and thickness of gasket used will skew your numbers higher or lower. I recommend a .030" mill and a .045" Cometic gasket.

So are you suggesting a mill them after I get them? or would AFR do this for me? When I mill them .030 and use a .045 gasket, what will that leave my CR?
When I did the cam swap we hand sanded the TB out and hit it with some polish...its not necessarily ported though to the best standards. I should probably get one done by one of the well-known porters around here to get it epoxied and such.

I'm only milling .012 (66 to 64cc) and using a .040 Cometic - With the piston .005 to .007 above the deck, I'll be right at 11:1CR. You'll need to know how far above the deck surface your piston is to figure out CR.

I dont know how far the stock piston is above the deck...why do I need to mill them? Won't they be correct from AFR? or are you suggesting milling them for my application?

My 346/A4 makes 453 rwhp, but with a locked converter and bunch of other measures that only Allan Futral could tell you about.

The stock unmilled heads from AFR are 66cc and will give you about a 10.5:1 compression ratio. If you mill them .030", you will pick up another half point in compression which will make more torque (5-10 tq increase). I suggest milling them this amount.

I dont plan on FI or nitrous...I want to keep it all motor...so I should be able to keep the compression up there. You will just have to keep the timing retarded and the fuel octane high and detonation wont occur.

I would probably do the +2 or none if I was running nitrous. If you call and talk to Alan @ Futral he will give you a better idea...he advised me to get the +4 when I talked to him back in May when I got the cam.

What is the piston to deck measurement on a stock internal LS1? Also, what is the compressed thickness of stock GM head gaskets? .052"? And where can I get the correct thickness gasket?
