i know its hard to tell but i am building up my nova gte engine and i was wondering if anybody knows roughly what power i should be making from
a polished and ported head
fast road kent cam
larger injectors
2.0 8v throttle body
and a 4-2-1 manifold
i done these mods on a corsa sri and it made 132bhp at the wheels

....a 1.4 8v made 132bph at the wheels with that? sorry but LMFAO
i assume you are aware the 2L 8v throttle bodie is the same size? it just doesnt have the wedge on the butterfly, why do you feel the need for larger injectors? are yours maxed out?
im gonna guess 110bhp at the crank
at that RR I'd say ohhhhhhh 200bhp lol
110-120 hp at the flywheel is my guess, as the head if done right with big valves is worth 10hp, and the cam is worth about the same, but it depends if the engine has been rebuilt.. if not, then you'll be lucky to break 105hp
It will drive like a sack of **** is my guess
