    Blower boost? + Engine dyno guessing?

     



    Hello.
    Im wanting to see if anyone wants to take a stab at my horsepower n tourque numbers for my blown sbc.
    350, 030 over=355ci
    Steel crank n rods
    Speed pro blower pistons = 8.1 comp ratio
    465-488 X 270-280 - 224@50 and 114 lobe seperation cam
    msd ignition
    Weiand 6-71 blower
    2 Edelbrock 500cfm carbs
    Edelbrock performer rpm heads W/2.02 X 1.60 valves 170cc runners
    Running 9lbs of boost.

    Next.
    Im running 8.1 comp ratio and my pulleys now are for 11-12 lbs of boost. Think even with my Alluminum heads that the boost will be to hi for pump gas? Thats why Im planning on 9lbs. Tnx, Hg
    Im not real smart, but I can lift heavy things.
