That's 285 hp stock.
Bored 30 over -> around 3 HP at the crank but done mostly for C/R
Your cam is mild -> Let's say around 40 HP
243 Heads -> somewhere between 15 - 18 HP (Let's assume 18 HP)
Hooker long tubes -> around 18 HP
Injectors -> very minimal
Fast 102 combo -> 18 - 22 HP (Mostly in the top end)
So in total you should be around 389 HP. A 93 octane custom tune and you should be around 410 hp.

I am thinking 389rwhp is a little optimistic. My setup is a little wilder and barely broke 400. Granted I haven't done intake or headers yet so I'm leaving a little on the table, but not that much.

It's a 5.7L L59. I left the .120" overbore and 10.75:1 CR out of my sig due to length constraints LOL.
Hence the "wilder" note.
My HP number is at the ground. When you said 389 I assumed you meant wheel HP, not crank.
