well as far as expected power goes there is alot more than engine mods to take into consideration with an automobile as such withj ur power train it is only as good as its worst peice of equipment so if i were in ur position i wouldnt expect much ... instead id just get it dynod and go from there

The 720s should limit you to under 300 rwhp. But yeah, take it to the drag strip, compare your trap speed and track weight to a few HP calculators (search google) will give you an idea what you've got, not that it matters, trap speed tells the real story.

Not tuned correctly...barely 200.

If tuned correctly, it should easily do 270.
