"Hi,
I have a heavily modifie
"Hi,
I have a heavily modified chevy 283 which has a 327 core so a 4" bore and 3.25" stroke. I have seen references to several different hp ratings for the 327. What factors (eg, carb, crank, cam etc) also factor into the hp rating of an engine besides the block? Is it possible to figure out what hp an engine has by taking into account all these things?
thanks,
Lori"
