? on 455

I bought a 455 it is a 73 block Fa. It has E heads and a torker intake can anyone give me info on why it would be set up this way? or what you think it would have for hp and torque? I took the heads off and it does have some dish pistons. Looks like the heads have some mild port work also. Thanks in advance.

The engine's obviously been assembled from a bunch of parts. Not knowing the cam, CR, or work done to the heads, it's impossible for anyone to guess HP and torque.

Put it all together as you would install it in the car. Take it to a dyno shop and run it on the dyno, that way you know exactly what you have. Otherwise get all the info, so we all have a better chance at guessing.
