    Starting a project on a 66 Malibu and would like to get an idea of what kind of HP I'm looking at.

    283 (compression prior to rebuild 9.0:1)
    Power Pack Heads
    4 barrel intake
    500 CFM holley
    Mild cam (327 stock)

    Pairing this with a TH350 and 3.23 rear end.

    Shooting a nice cruiser that will bark'em when I want too.
