Well, honestly I have no idea. They've got a cam meant for operation in the 1000 to 2500 range in most cases. Makes for good lugging power and torque, but I'm afraid it would be in expense of necessary horsepower. For instance, the 4010 gas was rated around 80 horse, and that was with a 302 CID I6.
Just making a scientific wild-@$$ guess here, but I'd say it'd be pretty close to equal what a factory I6 would be in one of these.
