Question

I am building my 360 for a 74 Dart Sport, heres what I have. I have the Edelbrock aluminum heads - 65cc chamber 202/160 valves and all the other bs that comes with them from Summit, I will go with the KB pistons-flat top-9.8-10.9:1 compression, with the heads I am looking for 10.5:1 compression. The cam of my choice will be the Mopar Purple shaft 292 duration (248 duration at 50). I am going to use the Harland Sharp rockers as well. The intake is an Eldelbrock Performer RPM-like the heads- in case of anyone wanted to know. The carb will be a new Edelbrock 750 as well, the car is an automatic but it will have a 3500 stall converter. I am going to run the 4:56 rear gear in a narrowed 8 3/4" rear. My question is how much horsepower to the flywheel as well as to the rear end should be speculated? Thank you for reading this long long long letter-I have no other sources at this time. Thanks again.

Exclamation

According to Dyno-MaxX, and fudging around with the Cam numbers a bit (it requires a few more datapoints than provided) it comes out to approx. 394hp @ 6000rpm and 388lb-ft. @ 5000rpm

This is taking into consideration that headers are being used at 1 5/8" to a 2.5" collector running through turbo mufflers using a 2.5" dual exhaust.

Now this is only engine HP, not bhp. You can guesstimate that by reducing roughly 20%.

Coming out with peak bhp as 315bhp and 310lb-ft. of torque at the rear wheels.

The equation also takes into affect the engine is at sea level and temperature is 70 degrees F.

This is, by no means, completely accurate...it's a sim...

That's a lot of camshaft. Question, why not use a camshaft with 'newwe' technology?

I'm guessing an easy 450 HP @ 6300Rpms.

If this a strip only car?

Where the hey is Southlake?
