Estimated Horse Power?

010 Block 350 With Street Dominator Intake, Camel Double Hump Heads, Stock Cam etc... Holly 600

Any estimates?

Not sure the casting # on the camel double hump heads but when I looked it up on a stock 305 it will push 300 Horses.

Anyway any totals? Thanks - just curious my car is almost done just waiting for the fuel pressure regulator sealant to cure

Stock Cam
Which one? Details matter.

010 Block
Doesn't really matter.

What DOES matter however, is the pistons. What ones of those did you use?

What prep has been done ot the heads? Are they the ones w bolt holes, or no?

fuel pressure regulator sealant to cure
Sounds like .... you'll be revisiting that... Teflon tape VERY CAREFULLY APPLIED (so that fragments can't tear off and get into the fuel stream) is the way to go

On the intake side or the block side of the head? Either way, I'd get it fixed before running the motor. If its the intake side, its probably dripping coolant into the lifter valey which means the coolant is mixing with oil. If the block side is warped, well I shouldnt really have to say why thats bad.
