Not sure where you want to be at for over all horsepower, but this will give you a basic idea of what you can look for.
Good luck
Thanx again . . As far as horsepower ratings, real or imagined, go, neither I nor the Boss are particularily concerned about them. That's a subject you BS about at the bar . .
Bottom of the timeslip is the intent for all the money being spent and questions being asked/answered. We're just looking to get consistent 9.50s (or close) at 4800-5000 feet . . and when we get to that point, then we'll try to step up. That's the reason for the 632 (or whatever we end up with) We've run high 9.80s with a tired 468, so 9.50s are a relatively reachable goal . . a little at a time . . .
We do use mathematical formula to establish a HP rating for each run, from the 60' time, the ET and quartermile MPH, but it's expressly for data base and not necessarily for bench racing . . Just another set of numbers to look at and compare actuals (Leakdown, Trans pressure, etc) to . .
The more data you have on hand, the better the decisions you can make both on race day and in the shop . . .
