^^^ Good stuff right there. Looking forward to seeing what she ends up putting down. Did they give you any idea what to expect?
Also, do you plan on going down to Bowling Green this year for Holley LS Fest? I think I may be going. If you do go, we could meet up somewhere in Illinois and drive up together.

I think you'll hit 400rwhp. The, if you add heads and intake, depending on the combo you go with, that should add another 60 or so HP. Have you thought much about TFS 220cc As Cast heads? You can get them through Brian Tooley for a really good price, and if you have an extra $300.00, he will hand port them for you, putting them on par or above the TFS 215cc CNC'd heads.
