Horsepower?

Ok so i have a couple of questions. First How much power does your truck make and whats done to it? Second How much power you think my truck would make with the things done in my sig plus pods or 435's and HX40?

Thanks
Jon

Well its hard to figure because your tranny is stock. The lousy torque converter is going to suck all your power up.

325HP, maybe 350 if you get lucky. You will need a better fuel supply with the 435's.

you'll get 300. right on the border line probably depending on how tight your converter is. do you have the receipts for the tranny? Is it stock or upgraded parts inside? this would be good things to know

Im pretty sure Richie O has stock injectors. but his truck is NON intercooled so it has bigger injectors in it from the factory then intercooled.

Roger that on the stock non i/c injectors. They put out a good amount of power. I still have some left on the fuel screw and I also have a stock fuel pin in. I think when I update sticks it will be 435's or equal. I need alot more air to run those full fuel but I only want to buy sticks once.
