Ok I have a friend with an 08 tbss that he is wanting to swap out the ls2 with 56K for ah, i think he said 418 stroker with ms4 cam and 1 7/8 lts, fast 102 intake/ tb. Its a 2wd and I think his tc is a tci streetfighter 3200 stall I think, he wasnt sure he just bought the damn part. What type of HP is gonna make?

They're heavy but even the 2WDs will hook like a MF at the track with the right tires. Rear end is damn near bulletproof. I put over 70 thousand miles on the one I bought new in 07 and didn't have any issues with it.

Should put down 460-500. The cam and heads are where its at. Mildly ported 243s aren't going to do a whole lot for a 418. Move up to some L92s and see some real flow.
