hey guys what's this sound like to u?

well, i was playing around with this desktop dyno thingie, and i took a 2.8L v6, bored it .040 over, it's got wedge heads w/pocket porting and large valves, tuned port injection with 600 cfm of flow, small tube headers with open exaust, a hi-po cam, and hydraulic lifters or roller rockers. According to this dyno thingie, (and i know it's a little off, but anyway) it says it yields 231hp at 6k and 233 lbs/tq at 4500 rpm. Does that sound about right or so?

hey guys come one, i know everyone loves hp # guessing. I actually haven't done all of this to my motor, in fact, barely any of it. But do these numbers seem unreachable to anyone, or would these mods do it? i'm just curious, and bringing it back to the top.
