What kind of RWHP can I expect out of this setup?? Currently my car has made 353rwhp and 375rwtq with stock heads and a comp cam (222/222 .563/.563 112lsa) I think thats pretty impressive for stock heads....this was put down through a TH400 with a 12-bolt in the back w/3.73's...
In the near future, I plan on putting RGR stage 2 heads on the car 2.02/1.57 valves and I will be using the X-ER 226/226 .585/.585 112lsa cam...what kind of gain will I see compared to what I am putting down now??
Thanks... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: What kind of RWHP can I expect out of this setup?? I believe every cfm of gain in heads should be worth 1 hp, if you dont have restrictive induction or exhaust this theory should be close to true.Find out flow numbers and compare to stock.BTW how did you get that post count? My god do you work? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Re: What kind of RWHP can I expect out of this setup?? Bos, you plan to spray or put a S/C on the car?
If so, why upgrade to that cam?
Why not go for something more directed towards either one of those?
Wasting your money AND time...

Re: What kind of RWHP can I expect out of this setup?? I plan on spraying for now...as george said in another post it really wouldn't be worth it to buy a nitrous cam unless I was going to spray around 300...this cam will be great with motor and it will do fine with the spray...and after that I will spend about a grand for stronger rods and pistons... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
I think this setup would be great for n/a...high 10's with a little weight reduction... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
