Default Desktop Dyno....Need some help!

Hello,

Beginner here and I was wondering if someone could run me a desktop dyno of the rebuilt engine my Dad is getting. I'm still attempting to gather all the specs, but here's what I know so far:

-351w block bored .040 over
-Stock Crank stroke (not sure what that is...3.5????)
-Stock rod length (again not sure what that is)
-Flat top pistons 10:1 compression
-Cam (still getting all the spec's but know the lift is .440)
-GT40 X alum. heads
-Roller rockers (stock ratio...1.6, I think????)
-Performer Dual plane Manifold
-750cfm Holley Dominator carb

What other spec's do I need for someone to be able to run a fairly acurate desktop dyno?????

Thanks in advance for the help,

-James

I'll run the Desktop Dyno for you too...I'd say just guessing that it will make around 390-400 hp. That's based on the fact that Ford Racing's 351W with pretty much the same stuff (just less compression) makes 385 hp.
