Default 450 snorting ponies

My estimate for my set-up is about 450hp. Sometimes I regret getting in "too much of a hurry" to get the car done by a certain date, and skipping the dyno. I estimate my CR at about 10.5:1 (I have closed chamber heads that have been opened up some to reduce CR).

I have an old hot rod mag somewhere that had a Cleveland build-up that pumped 441hp - and they didn't have Webers!

I've been told that with the aluminum high-port heads (sitting on the shelf in the garage) that I can get close to 600hp - one of these days.

regards,

Jeff
