There's no way with an automatic, stall, and a cc305, that you'll break 400 rwhp.

Compression does alot. also you said you have all forged bottom end, Thos epeices would have been almost identically priced for the 383.

I'll also bet youre torque peak and curve would not have matched a simularly built 383.

Injectors and a pump would have merely been another 300$.
