Those are important things too.
Those are good questions I'm not sure on exact power because I have not had it dynoed (I will most likely get it dynoed and tuned when I get the car driveable). I based the engine build loosely on one of the "engine recipes" from my pontiac engine building book - should be in the 450-500 hp range. Cam is solid, 525 lift, 280-290 range advertised duration. Yes, it's carbed, Holley 850 double pumper.

For use, mainly street and probably drag strip at first. I do want to get into autocross at some point.

Thanks again
