Default what to expect

I'm currently in the middle of my 5.7 ls1 turbo build. Turbo is a t70. Also going with a set of 317 heads. I'm undecided on the cam yet but would kinda power could I expect with let's say about 10 psi. Also what cr will I have with the 317s. Thanks

If you have a slightly dished piston (-5cc) you will prob be in the 9.4 cr range. At 10 psi, I would think it will be around the 500rwhp mark with a good boost cam. At least that's what I'm hoping for since I'll have the same set up....

With 10 psi you should be well over 500 rwhp. I'm in the 600 rwhp area at 7.5 psi.
