Horsepower question.

What kind of horsepower do yall think i am looking at with rats nest removal, RB exhaust, and removal of airpump. Everything else is stock including carb, and intake.

Headers are the only hp gain, the rest is clean up and simplification. Visit RBs website for thier facts/figures on hp gains per mod. Keep in mind, thier figures are based on thier products and installing the complete RB exhaust system. This question has been asked and answered many many times and is dependent on several variables which we cannot answer accurately, close maybe.

Everything stock, you might get to 100 rwhp, I'm leaning towards mid 90's....with the Weber added on a stock port 12A, you might hit 115 rwhp...
