318 Build? Help!

Well, it's just desktop dyno 5, I believe and I know it's within 8-12% accuracy.
I think it will make that much because it's going to spin to 7000+, and surprisingly the speedmasters flow exceptionally well for what they are.

But pertaining to this thread; even if it does not make the calculated power the program says; this combo at LEAST make more than enough torque and horsepower for OP's similar build to have fun with.

I don’t mean to poop in your cheerios but that’s a 260-280hp combo at best. And unless you are very good (read: precise) at setting up the valvetrain there’s no way it’s going to spin “7000+”, and there’d be no reason to spin it that high anyway because with a 216@050 cam on 318 inches it’ll be all done making power well before 6200. Build it, tune it, and stick it on a dyno, if I’m wrong I will gladly accept that, but I don’t think I am.
