Buying an engine and want to know what kind of power it should have!!

Buying an engine and want to know what kind of power it should have, thanks

Here is what I know about this engine. its a 501 cid.

crank eagle 4.140
rods h-beam 6.700
SRP pistons..030 over estimated 10.25 : 1 compression
camshaft is solid roller dur @50 int272 and exh276, lift is .702
iron dove heads port matched with super cobra jet valves put in them
some head work was done , waiting for flow numbers.
crower ss roller rockers
wiand stealth cj intake manifold
Do not have headers at this time
Head flow numbers lift int exh
200 154 120
300 218 147
400 272 159
500 316 170
600 345 179
700 336 181


power 3000-7200rpm

I'll update this in a little while with more info

Hey is a guy on the other site wiht an engine just like your asking the same question! Small world... LOL

Still need to know intake, carb., headers, and exhaust.

i'm the same guy,,, this is updated!!

What carb?

1050

My guess would be in the 550-575 the compression, intake, and exhaust port is gonna limit you.

Like many have already posted, there are limitations within your engine that may not allow lofty power levels. If parts selection was at it's best, the cylinder heads may not support much more than 700 horsepower.

Just my way of thinking,
Dave.

please anyone have any idea's on what this motor procuces for power..

With exhaust manifolds and a stealth intake and the parts you are talking about 450 hp max, put a victor intake, proper headers and the right cam, 500-550ish is possible.

With similar heads, a victor, few more points of compression and a better cam, Karl got 630plus out of his 466

And after doing a little more to the heads to bump a point in compression, and some plenum work on the intake, I hope to see more when I take it back to the dyno soon.
