    What do you think it will do?

    I am building a motor for my '65 Shelby Cobra Replica. It is as follows:

    '87 302 gt short block with 40,000 miles
    John Kaase high-flow heads
    Custom-ground Comp Cams roller cam
    1.6 roller rockers
    gt-40 lower intake
    Kenne Bell Blowzilla/Flowzilla supercharger
    90mm Accufab Throttle body
    90mm mass air
    4" long-cone K&N air filter
    42# injectors
    Aeromotive 1000 fuel system all piped in -10AN w/ regulator that increases fuel pressure w/ boost
    Custom high-flow headers and side pipes
    complete MSD ignition including Pro-Billet distributor, 6-AL box, wires, etc.

    All of this put through a new King Cobra clutch assembly to a new T5Z transmission, to a 9" rear with an Auburn locker with 3.50 gears.

    The car weighs 2200 lbs.

    What do you think I can expect for rear wheel horsepower?

    What do you think it could do in the 1/4 mile?

    Thanks in advance for your input.

    we would need lift on the cam,compression ratio and boost in lbs to be close.if you put all that togather you must have had an idea on the hp you wanted.we can guess though.

    I'll have to look at the cam specs when I get home, but the CR is 9.5:1 and I am planning to start with 6lbs. of boost.

    is that 435 without good heads, cam, and the 2200 blower? That's impressive!!

    I just dyno'd the car with a 6lbs of boost and it produced 406.2 RWHP and 402.8 RWTQ

    I am going to with a 10lb pulley next and see if I can't break 500 RWHP!
