Horsepower estimates
My engine is done, (well, except for small details I keep finding and fixing). I was just wondering what type of power I could expect. Not that I can change anything at this point, but hey, that's the way it goes.
Basically, besides going fully forged, it has a H/C/I upgrade, along with methanol injection and a boost pressure increase. If you could give a guesstimate, I would appreciate it.

They are fully tricked out LT-1 heads - ported, 2.02/2.60 ss Manley valves, CC 918 Beehive spring kit, CC ProMagnum rrs, ARP studs, CC custom turbo cam, Edelbrock Performer intake, 58 mm BBK tb. Everything is port matched and gasket matched.
The person who built the heads does it for a living for the Menards Racing Team. Great guy, really knows his stuff.

In that case I would expect over 500rwhp easily. I made my earlier statement based on the fact that alot of porters don't know that much about the LT1 cylinder head.
