New cam

Hey everyone I'm changing my setup on my 96 WS6. The new cam I'm getting is 236/242 .544 .550 112 on a 1.5 with a 1.6 lift is .580 .585. With that cam and supporting hardware (springs, retainers, etc) and the 1.5 RR, also with Pacesetter LT's, ORY, and SLP LM. What kind of power should i be making? And how much on the 1.6's.

Thanks everyone

if your heads are unported, don't expect big difference.

You need to tell us about your heads first.

You can see 400+rwhp with ported heads and intake. I strongly suggest you to do. Oh and my cam 240/246dur. in my 383 (6 more i/e).. So your idle will be lumpy..

I do plan to port heads and intake just not at this time. I don't have the money right now
