no cam is going to keep your hp. down... had 383 hsr with 083 heads very well ported.... was able to get in the 12.5s....still no match for a good set of aftermarket heads..

Re: what kind of power will a be making? ??

What year 350? L98 cam?

stealth ram and extra bolt ons usually 250-260whp in good conditions, depending on the dyno and correction factors applied. Assuming locked converter

Add 1.6 rockers and dyno tune it/track tune it. Should beable to scoot 12's with enough converter/gear/good air.

Re: what kind of power will a be making? ??

I ran comp magnum 1.6s which were 170 bucks back then. About an hr and I had them installed Ran great for the money.

I had an Edge racing 2800 stall in my car on DOT legal bias ply slicks and skinnies up front. Car was tuned very lean tho so it had more in it with more fuel. I think low 12.8s wasnt out of the question that day.

You need abit more converter to get down in the lower 1.7 high 1.6 60 foot range. I'd try the 2000 first but I doubt its gonna be enough.
