360 bored. 040, Speedpro H405 pistons, J heads with small valves, deck is factory height but going to run Mr Gasket steel head gaskets, cam specs valve lift. 444/. 467 cam lift 296/311 duration 288/298 duration @. 050 lobe centerline 106/116, Edelbrock performer intake and 600 cfm carb.
 
We need little mo info???? Stroke,if headers,if 1.6 rockers,valve size,if heads are port & polished,piston valve relief 2 or 4........ ETC... ETC.... ETC...
 
Sound like a 214/224 at .050 cam, those duration numbers posted are a bit wacky.

280-290ish on a good day tuned up well.
 
Pistons are 4 way valve relief, heads are stock J heads no porting or polishing, stock crank. I will have headers. My guess was close to 300 but I am new to this and this is my first build.
 
Well, those cam specs make no sense at all...but going off the lift alone, I would guess about 250 hp.
 
Those pistons list a 8.66:1 compression with 68.4cc heads. Most stock open chamber heads are in the 72cc range, so expect around 8:1. With an uncut block deck, expect even less, because Chryslers are always tall on the deck. The pistons have generous valve reliefs also. I'd say probably 6-8ccs worth.
