Stock bottom end with lt4 hotcam
afr 195's milled to 64cc
1.6 roller rockers

Re: Power Estimate

I did a quick setup with Desktop Dyno. Made a few assumptions since I didn't feel like checking calculations or verifying flow data.

- Assumed included LT4 hotcam data is correct
- Assumed AFR195 included flow data is correct
- Assumed 2.02" intake / 1.60" exhaust valves as specified in 195 flow data
- Assumed total combustion chamber volume of ~70cc, or 11.2:1 SCR
- Put HSR as standard-design tunnel ram, 800cfm (made almost no difference from 700 up)

Data shows 466 peak HP at 5500 RPM and 476 peak ft-lb at 4500 RPM.
