best educated guess on HP

Wow BBSWINGER, That is a mighty specific prediction, if your right can you share your lottery numbers, I might just have to buy a lotto ticket for a change. :)

Considering Hot-Rod got nearly 500 HP out of a nearly stock 5.7 with ported heads, the biggest cam offered by Comp, and a set of long tube headers I actually think that BBSinger is probably in the realm of reality.

The limiting factors are the intake with its longer runners and cam, both of these are good for driveability and overall performance, but bad for a high HP number. Thus a 450 HP number is very respectable.

Also, keep in mind that not that long ago 450 real HP was HUGE.
