do a search for indexed or refernced power valves and its easy to follow , also you have to size the carb right for the motor ie,468 with one set of heads and cam and boost need one size carb and the same motor with less boost ect may need a larger or smaller carb depending on air flow ,we match the cfm's to the motor

Seems a little clearer, ( indexed power valves).



Looks like the bore needs to be opened up to
4.600" which I thought he said makes it a 565ci.

8:5 to 1 compression and 5 lbs boost.
Dart aluminum heads............... not sure on the cam.
I think it is a 1050 dominator....

Hp = ?

Not knowing the cam, how much difference is there
between 5 & 6 Lbs with 8:5 to 1 Compression ?

4.25 stroke and 4.600 bore is 565 and 1 lbs of boost will add alittle h.p. more torque and without the variables its hard to predict the H.P.if everything is right with a roots blower of proper size you can get 850 + with 6 lbs more with a whipple or centrifical blower ,the package is the secret really thats what people strive for is the perfect package !!
AFR heads make more hp than darts and you need the right roller cam and fuel and exhaust system
I'm trying to help but its hard to do with out knowing the whole picture
