Usually with a mild blower cam and a larger carburetor you can expect a typical small block to produce anywhere from 360 to 400 streetable horsepower. The addition of a set of good heads can boost this into the 440 to 470 hp range. Torque on an engine of this type typically will be in the 400 to 440 Ib.

How is supercharger boost pressure calculated?
Add the boost pressure desired (5 Psi) for the engine to 14.7 Psi (atmospheric pressure). Divide this answer by 14.7 and this gives the boost pressure ratio. (21.7/14.7=1.476) This is the boost pressure ratio above atmospheric pressure.
