Ive wondered about how many horsey's my car has. Ive seen all the websites that you plug in your 1/4 mile et and such, but seeing how my speedo is kaput it does me no good......

Im looking to get a rough estimate. Just so I can brag to these ricers and their 120 HP Hondas....

Heres what Im running:

350 bored .040 over (Total CID 358)
Mellings RV cam. (Low end power, dont know specs on Cam, got engine from a buddy)
'Brock 650 CFM Carb, Performer Intake
True Dual exhaust, cherry bomb mufflers, headers.
Excell ignition
Blackout tail light covers. (Cause we know that stuff makes a car mad fast, yo.....)

From what I see from crate builds and such Im guessin in the 310-340 HP range? (Which I of course round up to 350 when I tell my friends.....)

Any guesses?

 

with the blackout, im gona guess... 839 horse and well over 1000 torque..


WITHOUT... id say somewhere around 320ish. Know anything more about your heads?

 

Stock heads. []

 

yea. id say around 320-340

 

Thanks. Confirmed what I was thinking.

Now if I add a bunch of asian symbol stickers and some plastic stick on carbon fiber look alike accessories, I could add what, another 100, 200 HP?

The Chrome fire extinguisher might actually give me warp speed like 'Fast and Furious'.....

dude with the true duals, you gotta put the stock pipes back on. then gut the cat and you will have braggin rights to vettes and vipers instead of ricers.

 

Whatever your HP/TQ guess is try reducing it by 30% and you will have a better estimate.Also asking others to confirm your guess just compounds the the error. People always think they have a lot more then it is actually.
