ct400 crate604

Hi 1st post here. Ive bought a 89 camaro that was once set up for drag strip and I'm gonna turn her back to a street/strip car and want opinions. As of right now engine is blown but have a th350 with turbo action shifter and shift kit I have bought a tci super street fighter converter (3500) to replace the 6000 coan engineering one it has a 9" ford rear with what seems to be 3.70-3.73 ratio. 4 link rear with qa1 single adj shocks on rear with pan hard bar and torque arm. Front are Lakewood 90/10 's with moroso rich drag coils. Rear is also spooled which I may change back to a posi want to drive some first to see how bad it is. Now for the question I have two blown ct400 circle track 350s called a 604 crate they are hydraulic roller motors with aluminum fast burn heads single plane eliminator gmpp intakes etc link to engine and most parts http://www.karlperformanceparts.com/...ate-Engine/17/ if I port match everything deck block and square up heads giving me 11-1 from the 9.6 and up cam from chevrolet performance hydraulic roller 208/221@ .050 .474/.510 lift to a Howard's 180325-10 or 180325-08 where should I end up HP and torque wise? GM claims 400/400 and engines come out of my uncles crate dirt late model and were dyno'd at 420hp to rear wheels of his late model keeping in mind it had Bert transmission and Franklin quick change rear end. Thanks in advance.

Ah come on guys. Every time I search a question I get this site and see several really good knowledgeable answers or opinions. Am I in the wrong section?
