Here's a great article dyno testing the 350 HP L79 327 and L46 350 engines.

The "Its easy to get 1 HP per cid" thing gets thrown around a lot these days, but it takes more than most people thinks it does with 30+ year old stock small valve heads. Its much easier with ported or modern heads. Its even easier with LSX engines, again, mainly because of the airflow of the heads. |
I agree. This is what I was thinking too is that it's easy to get 1 hp per cid with LS engines. I'd say 325 hp at best. That cam isn't going to work the best with those heads.
