    It should be around 300 at the wheels 400 at the crank.. But I have just the stock intake right now and a fairly mild cam.. I could get 500 easily.. Problem is though the 5.0 blocks break in half above 450 or so..

    A 351W can get same Hp more torque and live a lot longer..

    Do you mind me asking price? I know for 3000 you can have a stout 600hp 460

    Whew in pic of the valley of that motor
    reminded me of the oil crust I found in the
    late 1980's on my girlfriend now wife's
    1978 Plymouth Volare with a 225 slant 6 cylinder.

    The valve cover gasket was leaking, I took the cover
    off to replace the gasket. Underneath was a oil crust
    that made it look like a second valve cover under the
    metal one.

    I kinda doubt your getting 400 bhp, a 347 stroker with a bunch work only makes 425hp
