What kind of Hp am I looking at
I have a 355 sbc bored .30 over. It has the wieland Team G intake with a Barry Grant 850 cfm carb. Im running the double hump heads. Not sure on which headers but for sure a high performance one and 1 5/8 in. primaries. What kind of power should this motor be making.

430 Hp 379 Tq @ 6000
432 Hp 349Tq @ 6500
This program is a limited older version. so may be 10 -15 % eather way depending on the tune.
Back in the day those double humps where good, But today's vortecs head out flow ported camel back& so many after market heads are so low priced it's not worth dumping fund in to those heads, IMHO.
Now then if you swap that 850 carb for a 750cfm double pump. & change to 1 3/4" headers or larger. you could gain 50-60 Hp. That's by the program. so you kind of over carbed there .
