I'll be running a weber 48mm DCOE carb, on a s4 13b motor. Full RB exhuast, under drive pullys, and elctric fan.

What kind of horse power can I expect out of this?

Somewhere above 100hp.

Putting parts on an engine does not horsepower make. The real bitch is tuning the thing.

yep yep, when i put the stock r.b. jetted dellorto on my beast i didnt see any power gains... hell i got 28 mpg with the stock port jets in it.... then 250$ in jets and stuff later i put 165.1 down and was getting 12 mpg so i would keep 2 sets of main jets in my car in a zip lock bag. so i could drive some place and not have to stop 5 times for gas and then also to lay the smack down...
