Welcome to the place to be.
Your question should be "How much TORQUE?"   ------------------

Welcome to M&M !
I would guess at somewhere between 350 and 375 HP.  ------------------

Welcome to M&M!Comments: Great heads, tiny cam, so-so intake, small carb, low stall converter. You need more cam, vic jr intake, 850 carb, and at least 3500 stall. Then you'll run like a 408w should. Right now under 400hp, should be 500 with the right parts.  SteveW

thanks for the replies, hope your wrong, getting this thing dynoed this week, i been told by differant forums that im between 400 and 490 hp, but i will know soon, what cam is good for this engine, comp XE282HR, vic jr manifold will not fit under my stock hood without modifing it or change the hood, is 3500 stall to much for street car? maybe 3000 the most it will not move in traffic to much heat i think.thats why i have 2500 stall.thanks again

The Vic Jr intake will fit under the stock hood if you use a drop base breather. Here is a link to a pic of the engine from my former 69 Mustang. It had a 383W stroker with a Vic Jr. intake. I used the 13" Ford Motorsport drop base breather and a 2.25" tall K&N element. I wasn't able to use a carb spacer, but it didn't hurt it. Also replaced the carb stud/wingnut with a bolt. The bolt head didn't stick up as much. It was tight, but workable. Pic:

Well, my car wasn't exactly a street car. It had the Vic Jr intake, ported Windsor Sr irons, solid roller cam, 950 HP carb. It was a bracket drag car. It was good for 6.80's @ 100 in the 1/8 mile. Had 5.43 gears, 5500 stall 8" converter. I had two trans in it. A C-6 when foot-brake sportsman racing and then went to a Powerglide w trans-brake/dealy box when I moved on to Super Pro. I sold it a few weeks ago. Decided I wanted to go really fast for cheap (relative term) so I bought a rear engine dragster. I'm preparing a 557 BBF for it now. Later,

Not at all. I have used a 3500 convertor on the street with good success. It made driving the car alot of fun. Just make sure you have a good BIG cooler for just the trans. 2500 is too small in my opinion unless its basically a stock motor. ------------------

Ditto what Kid said. I have a 10 inch converter and it puts the engine right where it ought to be when I take off from the light (~3300). The sound reminds me a lot of the black Dodge that Clint Eastwood hitches a ride in in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. RPMs hunt a little bit coming off slowly, but spin up when I need to get moving.

hmmm... lose the slushbox, i'd say. Those things are no damn good  As for maximum air cleaner clearance, use a *cough*cough* Corvette *cough*cough* base with a 3" tall element and NO lid, stick a strip of foam on top of the element to seal to flat hoods. The large distributor caps may not clear this.

Are we talking rear wheel HP?
You should be able to get 330 or more at the wheels provided you do a good job tuning.
I would dump the strealth for a Vic Jr or RPM airgap.
BTW a friend just dynoed (engine dyno) a 393 with 192cc Canfield heads, 9.5:1 compression a Hyd roller 224/232 with 108 LDA (dont remember lift), Sealed power gapless TOP rings, victor Jr, Barry grant 850 Speed demon, and made 505hp (at the flywheel) after 6-8 hrs of tuning.
BTW he has one of the performance distributors HEI setups on it with the little Knurled knob for timing adjustments.... very cool
