I don't know man. It's still a mod motor, and they aren't known to produce a lot of horsepower normally aspirated, without some pretty sophisticated porting and machining. My guess would be that setup would net about 375-400hp, maybe, unless I'm missing something, because I don't see a magic bullet there that is going to produce bundles of horsepower.

I would say that 12k would be better spent on an Aluminator long block, either N/A or S/C, and top it off with the blower of your choice, either a Whipple, KB, or Procharger, and have a motor easily capable of 600-700hp.
 
its going in this weekend i will let u know what it makes

How is it going with the setup?
