I have a 67 firebird convertable and wanting to swap out the 71 2barrel
350 for a 400. I want to make it a 400 clone and already have the hood
and proper emblems but have no idea on where to begin with my 400 build
up. I would like somebody to give me a spec sheet that i could give an
engine builder and be somewhat sure of the horsepower I'm going to get.
I really dont need anything completely crazy, about 375-390hp. Right
now I have installed a Performer Intake, #1406 600cfm carb and HEI
ignition. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

I tried that and quite a few others and nobody just spells it out. Heck
I would buy the dagn specs because i have been searching for quite a
while. It's starting to piss me off.

That combo is likely to rip my convertible in half! This goes against
everything that is fun but, do you know of anything a little more tame?
I am onley saying that is b/c i want it to be reliable but just enough
to scare yah. Money is also a consideration. I know i'm getting picky
but aren't most guys with their toys? Tell me what you think. Thanks.
