.48 is normally accepted as topping out around 340bhp or so.

obviously depends on other things though

If that was some random person on the internet i would say you were talking rubbish, but having seen how your car goes it does seem possible i guess.

I still reckon its not a .48 housing on yours though

Daft as it may sound if its lower CR you will probably make less power from it

If looking at a 2wd manifold it is just behind the damper mounting to the left there are some raised numbers you should be able to see the either 6 or 4 as both the 3 and 8 looks like 8 anyway.
