Approximate horsepower??

Hey everybody. I was wondering what the apporoximate horsepower of my 302 is...... here is what it has:

Its a 1968 302 with fourbarrel heads
stock pistons
Edelbrock performer RPM intake
Edelbrock 600 electric choke carb
Crane 270 degree cam
headers

If anyone could give me an approximate horsepower....or what they think it is.....please just let me know! And if you have any other suggestions on what i should do to the motor please gime some! Thanks!!

I am wrong....with the fourbarrel heads the approximate compression is 9.0:1.

Gonna need a cam part number or the open and close specs. I don't see a cam on cranes site with a 270 degree duration. I have the flow data for everything else.
