I was wondering if I could get a Guesstimate on a combo I am building. Here's what I have....

74 455 bored .030 over
standard crank
Lunati Bracket master II cam - 292/230 .490 110sep
Performer intake
1 5/8 headers
holley 750 vac sec
HEI ignition
compression ratio between 9.5:1 and 10:1
I haven't decided on the 6X-4, 96, 66, 5C or 15 heads, suggestions?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

For most people, about 460HP, but for you about 560HP if you use the 5C heads.

Nice Lunati cam.

I ran it through a program I have and guessed at a few things but came up withabout 450 hp gross and 340 net hp. Should run around 12.90 in a 3500lb. car.

Not sure on horsepower, but depending on what else you've done to the block and heads the CR shouldn't be that high. If they are 87cc heads, .060 overbore, standard stroke, standard 6.7 cc dish piston, deck height is .020, gasket thickness of .039, CR would be 9.97:1. If the heads or deck have been milled the CR can go up quickly.

Minor changes....

It is a 71 block, standard bore and crank. Does that change the numbers much? It will be run through a 2.5 inch Flowmaster exhaust.

Thanks!

Drew
