445 hp and 495lb/ft torque.  I know you didn't ask for torque, but the relatively low compression ratio will affect it more than it will the hp, in my opinion.   The 9.5:1 compression peaked my interest since it is lower than most performance builds.  Torque is a product of displacement, volumetric efficiency, and compression ratio.   That compression ratio should work with 87 octane in most vehicles.

I am pretty sure Brent already knows what it is going to make within 10 hp or so.  :)

I think guys are reading too much into this one.  Low riser heads.  Sidewinder.  431 cubes.  Decent hydraulic roller.  It won't be a barnburner.   Going to the UK for a Cobra replica.  Should look the part, including the remote oil filter, chrome pentroofs, Aviaid pan, turkey pan, etc.

I've got 5 other FE's to dyno, including a 496, two more 427's, a 428, and a 440 ci road race engine.  There will be plenty of other opportunities for the guessing game.

That happens a lot on these guessing games. I wonder where some people come up with the numbers.
Stock LR heads and mild cam and compression will keep it pretty tame. I haven't looked at anyone elses guess, but mine is...
