    Hi all,

    Oh, thanks for all the help, I got the extra fan installed and checked the vacum thingy???? the fan still needs to be wired up, and I'm not sure what I ;m looking for when lookat the advanced vacuim thingy :-)

    Anywhy, What power is the car putting out, I have a 4 intake holley carb and the intake manifold is a holley conderter?

    If anyone has a rought idea i'd be thankful,

    Hope everyone is well, thanks Niall from Ireland

    According to my reference books, the '79 Chevy 350s were rated at between 165 and 225 hp, depending on whether it was an 8.2:1 or 8.9:1 compression ratio. All were Rochester 4 barrels.

    I doubt that adding a Holley and a different intake added significantly to the factory figures.
