TBI to Carb---what kind of power?

We all know that the throttle bodies on our cars rob us of horsepower. I was wondering what kind of gains I would make if I carbed it. Ok, what if I did this:
Stroke it to a 335
Better cam
Heads
Headers
Intake
Carb
What kind of numbers do you think I would put up?

This post is gay, quit your day dreaming you clutter up the boards... talk about a broad *** question, you just want attention. Scram

as one person said to me via icq "black widdow is a ****ing fool, ive never seen an intelligent post by him
him and onefine8t9 should handcuff themselves together and jump off a cliff"


I need mod status back theres too much friggin day dreaming on the boards makes this place seem like romper room

and let this be a lesson to the rest of you.. im leaving next monday so im not pulling any punches

Pablo, I dont know who you think you are. I can ask what I want to ask. Maybe some intellegent person who has actually been where I am can help me. Isn't that the purpose of this message board? And the question in this post id not broad. I just want to know how my car might perform with these mods, if it's just an estimate or if somebody here has done this and knows what it'll do. Why did you lose your moderator status anyway Pablo? Maybe because you aren't as smart as you think you are? Get off my back and show some respect, we're all in this together aren't we?

Again, I quit mod status, much like a moral leader would resign if his country was becoming an evil empire. What you are asking is as broad as the mississippi, that engine could produce 200 hp or 500. I liken it to the questions computer weather models seek to answer about our climate many years from now. Too many variables and the question is pointless and waisted typing time for for anyone who answers because its essentially going to end up as **** in the wind
