Default hp #'s

I have a 99 Silverado with a 5.3 engine. I have done the following mods. Can anyone give me a guess as to what my hp should be. I haven't had the time to dyno it yet. Mods: Volant cold air induction, poweraid throttle body spacer, Hypertech PPIII, Flowmaster exhaust and a power venturi from Mike Hamm. Stock hp is around 270+/-. Thanks for the help.

The 99's were weak due to the cam, so don't get your hopes up. Maybe 230 rwhp?

My first dyno on my '99 was with flowmaster, K&N FIPK, & HPP3. It showed 218 in 2nd gear. Would have been a little higher in 3rd.

well at www.aspracing.com you can enter in your weight and then your 1/4 mile speed and it will estimate your rear wheel horsepower for you. how accurate it is, well i don't know but horsepower is estimated by a few equations.
keep clicking around until you find the online dyno button on the top.
