Sammie,

Is there any specific reason you are running the smaller carbs?  Performance 
will be night and day between dual 34's and dual 40/44s.

  So except for the milder cam and the smaller carbs about the same engine.  So 
do you think I am in the ball park with an estimate of 110 hp?

      Exactly how did you have this engine set up in terms of heads, cam, and 
carbs and did you dyno it at the crank or the wheels, and how much horse power 
did you say that it turned out?

      I'm trying to get a guess ti mate of how much mine is turning with an 
Engle 110, Weber 34s and CB 044 heads.  My guess right now is 110-120.
