Yeah like Dan said not with that setup. If you want 400+ wheel go with some form of boost.

A forged 306 and a vortech will get you there.

My 89 has a forged 306 and a vortech plus an E cam. I'm getting 445 to the rear wheels. The problem here is the AFR-185 heads. If i had theAFR-165's I might get more HP. This one has 42lb injectors

Not sure what my 88 can do. It has a 302 bored 60 over with an e cam AFR-165 heads. Also has a Edelbrock RPM II intake. This one has 24lb injectors

The F cam is a supercharger grind. If you want to see 400-450 at the tire there are a few ways to do it. Stroker motor with high compression, stroker low compression and a power adder, stock set up with nitrous.

Everyone thinks about the build backwards.
First off, what do you want to do with the car?
Second, how much money do you have to spend?
3rd, whos doing the work?
What do you know about the car in general? Meaning do you know what block to use for specific application? stock, mexican, R block, 4 bolt splayed Dart???

Whos going to tune it all? What electric fan are you going to use? Your injector size will be different if you go NA vs. Boosted
3.73 gear? Why? what size tire? you going to drag race or just cruise?

See where I am going???

If your looking to buy something, I am strongly considering selling my 1990 Coupe. 500/500 at the tires, with every goodie. for what I am asking, you couldnt build half of this car.
