cam and head info and compression ratio are what is really needed to get a good answer

figuring a stock 350 is around 200(real HP) the mods you post will give around 30HP increase....the 8 CI will give 4.5HP...around 235HP as a guess

I"m going to guess that, assuming your compression is over 9:1 and you have a decent cam, you might be pushing 200 HP to the rear. If your compression is 9.5 or 10:1, you're looking at a bit more than that, and if it's the stock 8 or 8.5:1 like some years had, try about 180 RWHP or less...

We really need more info, and if it's the stock compression and cam, tell us the year so we can get an idea of what you're running.
