Can I get some inputs on how much horsepower my engine might make and a rough estimate on my cars 1/4 mile time?
'88 Camaro SC
rebuilt '89, 9c1 LO5, 350 engine ( Caprice police engine)
'91 Formula FBird heads, ported and polished
Edelbrock Performer intake
Open FlowTech headers
3:42 standard rear-end
T5 tranny

Im guessing around 265 HP (at the flywheel) and 14.0-14.4 quarter mile... nothing amazing.

 

You're probably close. Only one question, what bump stick?

 

Only a person with a crystal ball could answer that! Go to the track and find out!

 

Or a person with a setup close to mine and knows what his car runs. Nearest track....45 minutes away, and closed for winter.

 

Should be a pretty good setup, the heads you listed "'91 Formula FBird heads, ported and polished" are those L98 iron heads?

 

Yes, there L98 iron heads.

 

That should be a pretty strong setup then, close to what I am doing soon in the future. I would look into some different headers though, those flowtech's are going to restrict you. Look into some better ones like the SLP's or the Hooker 2055's.

 

If I could afford better headers, Id get them, but Im on a budget right now. FlowTech's only $100 at Summit. Same thing with the heads. When I have the money im gettin Vortec heads and intake, better headers, Cherry Bomb or Flowmaster dual exhaust

 

Sounds like a good plan, but you still never said what cam you'll be using? Realize too, that this setup is going to need some chip tuning.

 

Stock roller cam for now, I'll get a new one when I get the new intake and heads
