So if his 4.3 with exhaust and programmer, and a red top makes 798ft lbs of torque, does that mean that once i get a chip for the 88, ill be making like 800-900ft/lbs? Or that i can install a red top and gain 100-150 hp and 300-400ft lbs?

Hit up your local dyno and tell them you want a before and after with a red top battery.
