Trick Flow 240...

Wow! Old thread revival!

A good basic estimate without pushing the limits is cfm X 2 = potential HP. That would be a stout build. Not a hard core HP chase.
But you can make more than the basic laymen’s math equation. A lot depends on how far you want to take it.

A bad *** street machine?
CFM X 2 = HP potential.
?? 451 x 2 h.p. = broken block if hammered often
500c.i. 440 , x 2 =1000 h.p. another broken block !
