What's my HP?

New to the forum. Recently acquired my 88 Iroc after my Step-Dad sadly passed away last fall. The car belonged to him, I bought it from my mother a few weeks ago. He told me years back it had 400hp, then added a supercharger and told my brother-in-law 550hp. Based on what's been done, do you think he was referring to hp at the crank or wheels? Also, any idea what this might do for a 1/4 mile?

88 Iroc
ZZ4 crate motor 5.7L 350
Edelbrock Tubular Headers
Crane Cam Rocker Arm Set
Edelbrock Catback exhaust
Procharger P600B Supercharger (9psi)
manual tranny

I don't know much else about what's been done to the car, I will try to upload a pic.

BTW, lovin the car!

Re: What's my HP?

He should be talking about flywheel hp, and I'd guess more like 350fwhp n/a, 500fwhp on boost from what you were told it has. I'd put it at a mid 11 second 1/4-mile.
