Here is a list not sure if I included everything:

AFR 195 LT4 heads stage 3
LT4 intake port matched
Lt4 block
Forged 383 kit(scat crank, eagle rods, etc)
comp lifters
ARP pushrods 7.400"
1.6 COMP Rockers
BBK 58 TB
Custom CAM: 617/640 244/244 at .050" 114 LSA
30 lb/hr injectors
FLP Long Tub headers
Borla exhaust
95+ opti

Anyone have and idea of how much HP/Torque I will be making.

Sweet set-up. I'd guess 410~420rwhp.

tune

In your situation i think its really all gonna depend on the tune. You are going to need a really good dyno tune if you wanna get all the power the engine is capable of. Im not sure exactly about the numbers cuz your cam profile is looking kinda strange to me. Usually NA LT1's like a duration split of at least 6 degrees. but thats just me.

430 rwhp +- 5

Stage 3 AFR's w/ big cam 244/244 will make more than low 400's.

True for NA LT1's usign LT1 heads. He's using AFR castings based around the LT4 raised runner variation of the LT1 head. If his exhaust numbers are better (a fraction closer to 3/4 of the intake flow) then there is no reason for the extra exhaust duration.

I dunno man, but i hope it makes big numbers and keeps you happy. Good luck.
