So I contacted Chris Straub for a cam recommendation for this build. His recommended cam for my build will likely produce "450 hp and over 520 lbs". Is this an unreasonable projection for a stock rebuilt L29? I will probably be looking at some tuning, slightly larger injectors and a set of trip Y headers as well. Any opinions?
