Heim theory predicts the fine structure constant (for numerical computation see e.g. bottom of Auerbach and Ludwiger paper quoted above, or selected results in Heim THeory site), the elementary particle masses, coupling constnats and particle lifetimes, though the latter may still be incomplete, which makes predicting all the resonances not so certain.
You don't 'predict' pi - it is just is there, like 3. Pi is given by a Taylor series, on, I think, arccos (-1).
planck, gravitational are 2 of the 4 input physical parameters to the theory. The other 2 are permitivity and permeability in vacuo, and ny Maxwell's equations, which are contained in Heim theory, it is easy to show that c is
:
c= 1\sqrt{permitivity _0 * permeability _0}
