Default how much horsepower??

i've decided to switch out my sohc to a dohc but was going to add a street/track comp cam, mopar pcm, 10.5:1 compression pistons, ported and polished cylinder head. along with titanium valve springs and retainers, clutch and flywheel up grade. any idea on horsepower gains??
I'm looking for at least 160 to the wheels.

You will need more than that to get to 160 at the wheels.
After the switch to a DOHC you should be about 115 at the wheels. Mopar PCM adds maybe 4-5 and the 10.5:1 pistons along with the ported/polished head who knows, but that won't get you 50 HP...thats for sure.

Can't say that I have seen a Dyno just after the Crane #16 cam was put on, but I'd guesstimate maybe 10-12HP under ideal/peak conditions maybe.

I wouldn't say "safe" to say, but you could probably estimate it around there.
