Didn't know which forum to put this in, but I would like a number of opinions before you "have" to close it(if you even have to).

Look in sig. for specs.

I am wondering how much HP i should/would/maybe get with the following:

Mac 3in. catback
High flow 3 in. cat converter(Mac or Catco)
Edelbrock Performer Manifold
CompCam 264H hydr. roller camshaft
K&N open element filter

 

it helps when you post your sig

Add heads, you're probably over 300. Without, you're about 50-60 short.

I'm still amazed at how my combo runs. Only downside so far is gas mileage (but the TCC still doesn't lock - working on that).

You ABSOLUTELY need headers with that gear. With headers you will be around 250 to 260 hp. Add a decent set of World SR heads and you'll be near on 300 hp, because you will be achieving synergy.

 

hey tcc still wont lock huh....easy simple fix , first you'll have to do some re-wiring, trust me though it works. get a toggle first. then there "should be" 3 wires running off the tcc switch .the greenish blue one is computer crap, ignore it. the brwon with black stripe is to be grounded to the chassi or tranny someplace. and the other wire cant remember color(only other wire there) has to get a extension and ran to the toggle . give the toggle power and viola! you have lock-up again. i suggest only using this on the highway,for the fact that it'll bog the engine wayyy down in town. i hope this makes sense. i'll write down your email and drop you a line to see if you need further instructions .this is a manual lock-up only it wont un-lock by itself what-so-ever. but, it better than 75$ for the new "kit" for lock-up and you really only need lock-up on the highway anyhow. like i said i'll email you to see if you need better instuctions. ive been meaning to post this in the tech section for all to see but, dont know how. see ya!

Off topic, but the 4-3 switch inside the pan is open, so I don't have any continuity in the circuit to the connector. Therefore, any attempt at an external fix is moot.

I've learned this from responses to my post on this issue on the tranny forum.
