Tomorrow night I'll be taking my truck to a shop and having it dynoed. I'm really excited that I'll get to see what it really has and where it makes peak hp/tq and how close my carb tuning is. Anyone want to throw any guesses out to what kind of hp/tq it will make? Here is the combo:

351 Cleveland 4v. Bored 0.030 over with TRW flat tops that yield about 10.8:1 compression. Heads are closed chamber 4v that have been ported, exhaust side was also polished, Parker port stuffers in intake ports, Manley Race Master Valves 2.19"/1.71", and Crower Stainless 1.73:1 Rockers. MME custom hyd roller 242/[email protected] with 0.640" lift on both sides. Funnelweb Intake with a 1" custom tapered Wilson's spacer that is matched to the cloverleaf pattern on the intake, 950 HP Holley DP. MSD billet distributor, MSD Digital 6 Plus ignition box, and MSD HVC coil. Hooker Super Comps with 1 3/4" primary tubes into a 3" collector. Exhaust is dual mandrel bent 3" with Borla XR-1 Sportsman mufflers.

Full Roller c6, Sonnax Super Servo, Broader Stage 5 valve body, 4000 Dacco Torque Converter, Gear Vendors Overdrive, 4.86 gears and a Detroit Locker equipped 9".

Any guesses are appreciated so I know what to expect and I'll post results after I get home tomorrow.

------------------
1982 Ford F100 2wd Shortbox. Powered by a 357 Cleveland w/ closed chamber 4v's and a Funnelweb. Full Roller c-6 trans with Gear Vendors Overdrive and 4.86 geared Detroit Locker equipped 9" rear.

Less than you are probably expecting. The C6 is a power eater regardless of it being rollerized, and the relatively loose convertor will also hurt the power it shows to the wheels. I'm betting it doesn't show much over 300 to the wheels, if that much. Maybe 330 rwhp if it's not 100* in the shop when you dyno it.

Plus, I really think the Funnelweb intake isn't what it's cracked up to be either. It sounds great in theory, but from some of the history I have heard about Parker and his design techniques, I have no faith in his products.

KV, I'm aware the the convertor and the c6 will eat up a fair amount of power. I know the Funnelweb makes more power than the Blue Thunder did. I can't judge anything below 4,000 rpms, but the Funnelweb gained everywhere about that.

But, about Parkers design, what is bad about it? I'm not saying you're wrong, I was just curious what your views were on it.

How much more power do you think a C6 eats?
Can't be much, maybe 25hp?

Im thinking the headers will hurt the truck the most. So i am thinking 320+ hp and 300+ on the torque because of the small headers. Whos doing the dyno? Keep us posted.

I was gonna guess a little high then, because I was figuring at least 325 to 350. I want to see the results too.

A normal non rollerized c6 'eats' around 60 hp. A c4 takes around 25 hp to drive. A powerglide takes something minimal like 15 hp. The only 3 speed auto trans that takes more hp than a c6 is a chrysler 727. If I remember correctly, it takes something like 65 or 70.

So a net of -35hp?

That's more than I thought, but not a bad trade-off for a more heavy-duty transmission.

Now what about an AOD, more than 60?
