Hi all,
Can anyone offer some insight on the rebuild for my '68 GT500? The rebuild was done in 2001 and included the following components/steps:

Components:

V6 5003 Guides
SB 2125-2 Int Seat
603-16 Comp Locks
CS1086R Cam
HT 900 Lifters
R x R Cam Bearings
E261Kt3C Rings
CB760P STD Rods
MS863P STD Mains
F-33 Cam Bearings
354Pt30 Pistonds

Machine Steps:

Bore and Tork Plate Hone 30 Over
Mill Heads
Mill Exhaust Manifold

Any ideas on % over stock HP this rebuilt may generate? Any other insights?
Thank you.

1967 eight barrel

The cam is an old TRW/Speed Pro number which crosses over to a 429-460 engine. It's a stock replacement and wouldn't be correct for your vehicle anyway.  They are all Low Performance stock replacement numbers. R&R means remove and replace. You used to be able to purchase remanufactured rods. Those are also 3/8 rods. standard FE rods.  The FP33 are Durabond low end cam bearings. 
What are you trying to ascertain based on the posting? It was a budget rebuild at best.
