Baseline on their dyno was 417hp, about 7hp more than expected after SAE correction.

They added long tube headers and not much happened.

Then they recalibrated the PCM and got some nice gains after 4800rpm. As much as 25hp on the top end (up to 442hp and 425lb-ft now). I don't quite understand this part, but overall I would have liked to see these results with the stock manifolds.

Next they modified the throttle body (an aftermarket shop performs these mods, and the diameter stays the same). This is worth another 11hp. Up to 453hp and 430lb-ft. That's 36hp and 29lb-ft over stock.

Dave Vizard has written quite a few books on modifying the SBC: http://www.amazon.com/s?ie=UTF8&field-a ... d%20Vizard
