Jc Performance got 515hp out of mine with the stock heads & intake. He just used a 525 cam, ported the heads & a good program of the efi.

Are you sticking with the Bravo III after the rebuild or going to a Bravo I? That decision should influence how far you want to go HP-wise with this upgrade.

Tommy, I'm really happy with what I did to my 454's. If you want the cam specs & stuff like that, PM me.

I think the first question a builder would ask is if you want to keep the EFI system.
