Default what power gains am i looking at from a built head?

by built head i mean along the lines of (either b16a, b18c1 or b18c5) port and polish, crower/itr cams, dual valve springs, ti retainers, 3 angle valve job, skunk2 im, aem cam gears. raised redline to about 8500...
what power gains are we talking here with a stock bottom end. would this be a good idea with a stock bottom end.
anyone have this or something similar to this?
thanks in advance

if you are running a VTEC head, I would suggest something other than the crower cams. Go to the type r forum, they are running JUN, TODA and skunk2 cams. IM int3gra he has a link to some article that compares all the cams unbiased. Stock ITR cams end up being the best.

with a full portflow job and components, some toda spec Bs,cam gears, and good tuning,i would expect upwards of,lets say 35whp, to be on the conservative side.

I'm pretty sure you lose some compression if you do this?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong
