To run with the some of the faster 396 69 camaros I would say it needs to make around 560.

I don't plan on running any NHRA events with this car maybe a few IHRA so the HP really doesn't matter as long as it will run under the index I will be happy.

We did not have a very good dyno session. We only got to make three good pulls before the water brake broke on the dyno. The plan was to compare the stock Cobra Jet 735 with the Quick Fuel replacement. We made the three pulls with the 735. 493 HP, 500 HP and 502 HP all around 5900.
