Can hardly wait til Monday....the 440 is going on the dyno and we'll see what it produces.  Didn't have the bucks to make all kinds of horsepower, so I'm not sure what to expect as far as horsepower and torque.   Any guesstamates out there?????

Conservatively speaking, you'll probably see 200-225 hp and 320-350 tq at the wheels with a vanilla 440 build. Let us know how it goes! Thumbs up!
