Default HP estimate??

My new motor goes on the dyno Monday, any guess what it will make. 408 CI windsor. 4.03 borex4.00 stroke. 12:1 compression, AFR 205 cyliner heads, 2.08 Intake 1.60 Exhaust, Edelbrock Victor Jr Intake, Mighty Demon 800 carb, MSD billet dist. solid roller .672 .669 lift, 260 270 duration at .050 106 lobe seperation. 1 3/4 Long tube Hooker super comp headers. I am hoping it will make at least 600 but I guess we will see.

Well, I didnt get to dyno my motor because it is below zero here and the cold air intake on the dyno here comes from outside. It is going on the dyno the 21st of this month if nothing else unexpected comes up.

My guess is 410 uncorrected horsepower peak. The calculation is pounds of fuel per hour divided by the Brake specific fuel consumption right off your dyno sheet. That is the observed horsepower, before the sea level correction that the engine is NOT doing on the dyno.
