clutch = no hp gain
cat back = maybe 7-9 hp
intake = another....3-5 hp? i think
headers = another 7-10 hp
short shifter = no hp gain

so add that to the stock 140-145hp engine u have and there u have it. ur current hp. tho, if u went ebay parts u can subtract about 20 hp from that lol

ive taken on two mustangs gt's an lost to one cause i launched it at high rpms, so is it just that i got lucky? or is it the torque in the car an maybe the weight? then turned around an took on a 94 camaro z28 twice ?????? thats weird

The ls motor has really good torque. My buddy had a hatch with an ls and he could easily pull away from my b16 hatch. Kinda sad

actually if u brought it from a mechanic then its possible that it had work done to it plus with new piston your car would run a hell of a lot better too. possibly a combo of the tranny and motor thats making ur car run fast

one word:

dyno

we could sit here all day and guess how much HP you're putting to the ground. Like Double_U said though, if you went cheap on your bolt-on's, you could have lost HP. get your **** to a dyno.

please elaborate - depending on the design, you could gain (or lose) horsepower. You've probably gained 15hp max.

Regardless - wudini is correct: get it on a dyno; it's pointless to guess your power output.
