wheres my hp? i did a heads and cam setup. supposed to be similair to a g5x2 cam, and stage 2 heads (with a local valve job). Well, i sent it to get dyno tuned...the results? a 350 hp car 
heres where some of the power "might" be- i have 2.73s and a yank ss4000 stall. the converter just hits and seems to stay at 5K on the dyno they said. could this be why it shows so low on the dyno? im not one to worry about dyno numbers cause its a tuning tool for me...but still. can the 2.73s kill the dyno that bad? car picks up and goes good. the 2.73s are decieving cause its not shifting that often. i was gonna hit the track this weekend to see how it mph. with a heads and cam setup in hot weather i think it should be around 118? sound right?

118 might be a little high, but it certianly might. Something is not right with a 350 hp h/c car. Mustang or dynojet? What was the torque? Where did the hp/tq peak? What was the timing and air/fuel ratio? Who tuned it?
