Consider it blown to pieces. The stock 302 block is only good for 450-500hp over the long haul. Your tranny would be grenaded as well. The T-5 has a rated torque capacity of 305lb/ft.

If and that's a completely hypothetical thought since it will never happen, you were able to not blow the thing to pieces even on a dyno, you'd be making probably in the area of 500-600hp on motor, and maybe 700-800hp under some serious boost from that S trim. Torque will be huge as well. Maybe somewhere near or above hp.

Just my best guess.
