Ok guys....I'm nearly done.

In another 600 dollars and about 1 month, my car will be streetable again. Overshot the stock rebuild slightly, so I'm questioning how close I'll be to my final FWHP of 375. I'll riddle off my new additions....

I had to spend a lot of money and I really want to know what kind of power I'll make. I've heard everything from 300 at the crank to 400. I really just want a realistic HP number and a decent estimate on what I should run in the 1/4 on some 26 inch tires. My goal was 375 FWHP and a high 13 second run.

Thanks guys, and sorry to bother you with more useless questions

Also what kind of oil do you guys run when breaking in a new motor, and how often do you change the oil?
