409RWHP/390RWTQ, RGR STAGE 2 AND COMP CAM
Well, after I blew my old motor I finally got my new engine installed from Speed, inc. I made it all the way home and twisted my driveshaft apart.
Well, my car is a Sportsman 346" shortblock, all forged internals, RGR Stage 2 heads, 224/228 .581/.581 112LSA Cam, SLP LT's, SLP ORP, SLP LM Exhaust, ASP Underdrive, Whisper Lid/filter, etc. etc.
This was also dynod in 103^ heat and through my 12 bolt Moser with 3.73's. Car made 409RWHP/390RWTQ. Im pretty impressed with the setup. Pretty mild and made tons of power. Motor was freshly built, hadn't even been broken in yet. A/F was 12.6 across the board, timing at max torque was 24^, max timing for horsepower was at 27^. Enjoy!

Do you think I can squeeze off more power once the motor has a few more miles on it? I was hoping to be in the 420-430 range. Why are cars getting more power than mine, substantially a lot more power?
Your cam seems a little less tame than mine too. Ive also got tons of other parts that I didnt have time to list.
Oh yea, that was my N/A run, Ive got my 75 shot too for kicks.

Nice numbers and nice curves, i think with a little more aggresive tune you can get a few more hp out of it maybe 415-420. the rings should be fully sealed by the 3rd pull but may still pick up a little more over time

Re: 409RWHP/390RWTQ, RGR STAGE 2 AND COMP CAM
Thanks a lot for the responses. I have it set for a very conservative tune because of the Nitrous, and my motor was pretty spendy ($12K). Its A/F is at 12.6 currently, max timing for torque was 24^, max timing for hp was 27^. So, its pretty conservative.
I like it that way, I just want to be on the same side. It still pulls extremely hard.
UPDATE: I just broke my driveshaft in half because of it. LOL.

My RGR's stage II, 224/581/112, LS6 Intake, and ASP Pulley should all be here next week. Thanks for making me even more anxious! I will have to wait for the 12 bolt though, the money tree is back to a seedling after this order.
Anyone care to guess what HP I should be getting? Check sig....thanks.
Oh, and great numbers!
