Well with an automatic trans, independant rear suspension, a low compression of 9.25 to 1 ideal for being boosted, and seat of the pants compared to my old high compression setup in the same car...I would say between 450 to 475 to the wheels.
The plan when I built the car was to put a d1 or f1 procharger on it. If you were to put a procharger on it you would be limited to around 600 rwhp because of the fuel system. The car has the 8.1 L bucket mod with a walbro fuel pump currently. If you improved the fuel system I could see 700+ rwhp out this easily. The drivetrain is already built to handle that amount of power. Alot of people seem to underestimate the cost of building a drivetrain to handle a ton of power. I would say I've got around $7,000 in the drivetrain behind the motor. I see that stuff getting overlooked the most and people only consider the motor which was a little over $10,000. I like the peace of mind that everything behind the motor can handle the power and will not leave me stranded with a car that can easily be daily driven.
Thanks for looking.

I prefer for any buyers to come look at it and take it for a drive in my home town. I've had so many tire kickers and bogus offers I don't want to travel to show someone that may back out. Also, I'm asking $5,000 less than what I really want out of the car so I don't want to pay for the travel also.

I want to keep the package I put together complete. It looks like I'm not going to get the car sold and I'm fine with that. I want to either sell the car complete or keep it the way it is. I know what I have in it and how few miles are on the setup so if I'm going to keep the car I want the good stuff still in it.

This thread can be deleted...car is no longer for sale! gf saw the insulting pm's I was getting and said we can keep the car. We are going to just save money and do the kitchen next year. I even got to buy my new Line 6 spider valve hd100 stack for my guitar and electric drum kit:-)
