Something like 15 hp if memory serves me. If you can source an 850 holley dp, give that a shot. More timing like others have suggested could help also. A larger double Pumper carb and timing sweeps are easy to do in comparison to a cam swap.Good luck.


I believe the last dyno pull was with a Holley 950HP carb
