It would be great to have longer term assessment but that's not always available. My personal goal is 600-650whp and I'll be sure to plaster the internet as best I can with the reults
My target is over 500 hp at the rear wheels. I'm not sure any more will be of much use in a pickup truck but it will only be a cam swap away. I did keep my set of 317 heads so if i want to boost it later I can. Right now its going to stay naturally aspirated.
