Don't be too disappointed in the numbers. There are too many variables. My chassis dyno numbers made me puke! And they weren't as high as yours. I had a mismatched converter and it blew right through it. Ending up in the nines with a quality converter. You are going to need a roll bar for sure and that's gonna add some weight, not Sure of your intake but at that weight with 350 gears I think you are going to need 750-800 at the crank to crack the nines. Motor should have the nuts to get you there. You'll just have to fine tune it.

Thanks Mystic, I'm somewhat encouraged. I'm figuring I need another 50-80 hp to reach my goal and I know the heads are not restricting me. We put a vacuum gauge on one of the pulls to check for a carb/intake restriction but the gauge was reading about 1 inch vac. So I think I'm ok with carb (1050 Dom) and intake.
