what HP & Torque ratings do u think my 305 TPI is woth?

Im not trying to be ****y or show off, just curious to find out what my HP and Torque ratings are. Some told me 300 hp and some 250 hp and i just wanna ask for the last time. Im running naturaly aspirated right now and just wanted to know what my power is. I know there is alot of improvement left but this is my first engine rebuild with just the help of fellow members. Just for argument sake what do u think my 1/4 times are with great traction and perfect shifting. I have 3:23 gears in back and mods below in my sig. thanks, Of course any suggestions and comment are welcome but pleae lets not be too harsh.

Well I think my car has around 270hp.....so I would say your car is making around 300hp maybe a litle more. Thats just a rough estimate, and have you taken your car to the track yet...you should get mid to high 13's with a good set of tires, I would hope so anyway.

You should be making 1 c.i.=1 hp with heads ,intake and cam..So I think you are past LT1 SS range..probably getting close to LS1 neighborhood! You could probably tie one on the highway..They weigh more..I have no idea about your torque numbers..you are my new 305 N/A hero though! Run that bit.c.h! I wanna see what your MPH is like..Don't care about your E/T unless you manage to hook somehow..Got any pics man?

You know what alot of people ridicule me about my setup claiming i dont have those modifications or even a camaro. The motor is currently in the camaro in the shop. Its gonna take about a week or two then i gotta break it in and all that crap. To be honest the camaro better run 13's or im just gonna go to carbeurator. Im sorry i would post pics but for some reason i cant, I have the pics downloaded at photopoint.com but i cant seem to paste it on to the reply part. I have my camaro pic doing a nice burnout and i would kill to have the pic in by i cant. If possible can any of u guys explain it in cronilogical order. I dont know that much about computers so explain slowly once i get the explanation ill post the pic immediatly. thanks alot

Cam specs would help others guess your power level. I'm not even gonna try, but if it's fun to drive, who really cares.
