Without looking at the motor, 140HP. I was close wasn't I? I know a 2007 with simular config is 147HP.

This is the first stroker I've built.I was thinking it should be around 140hp by basing it off some other engines i have seen, I'm gonna upgrade the Heads a little later on to some street eliminators from Moore Parts that have 44X37.5 valves and do some work on the carbs and raise the compression up to around 9:1.Maybe then i will jump up to around 170+hp.What do you guys think or suggest,would that bring me up to 170hp or so, how about putting some ratio rockers on im not sure if my cam(engle 120) is compatible with them or not and would that maybe help some.
Thanks,
Mike
