Default How much power on this set up?

I was wondering how much power you guys think this set up is making or could make with a good tune. Its in a 95 6 speed camaro it has a 355 forged eagle I beam rods, speed pro flat top pistons, comp 230/236 .576/.570 on a 113 LSA. Stock heads ported pretty heavily and milled .030 with a .029 head gasket, 1.6 RR, LT pacesetters and 2 1/2 in. true duals with bullets. It has not been tuned yet, how much do you think it would pick up with a good tune?

If your heads flow well enough and the tune is good, I'd say 400 would not be difficult at all. There are a few people who have made 350+ with that cam and stock heads.

and a lot of those setups haven't hit the 400's (cc306 or gm847) I'm not saying all of them haven't. Are those all your mods?

And those setups are older technology.

One guy on cz28 gained 10 hp from just swapping the cc306 for this cam (230/236).

I got 421 RWHP (dyno on link below) with the smaller 230/236 .544/.555 on a 112 LSA but I also got some extra CI and some more extras. Just from he listed on his mods I'm just saying it will be hard

I don't remember exactly, just that he posted that.

basically I'm just sayin that everyone always says well since that cam a (whatever it is) has similar specs to cam b (the 847, cc306 etc.) and because cam b didn't do X I don't think you will gain much over cam b, and that's not always the case.

plus a lot depends on tuning imo. A good tune can easily mean a 10-20 hp difference.

It also has egr,air,a.c. and power steering pump delete and some other stuff that doesn't pertain to h.p. I know a CAI and throttle body would help but what else would help me out?
