Default Dyno numbers after cam install

Just got the number back from the guys that installed my cam. 391hp and 366tq. I got a few things fixed before I get ready to ship my car over here and thought about a cam and figured what the hell might as well. I went with a 224/228 "581 588" @ 114. The car already had pretty much all the boltons. I'm happy with the hp number but the torque seems a little low. Is that normal? I can't wait to get it here and drive it down the autobahn. Should be lots of fun until the 10 bolt explodes.

I love K-Town! I try not to stay here any time I have more than a day off though. Everything in Europe is so close I try to get out and see a new country every other weekend.

So that gap between torque and Hp is normal?

That's a nice gain! I'm running the same cam. With 62cc AFR 205's and similar bolt-ons my car spun the Dynojet to 427rwhp and 397rwtq.

Nice #'s man! Thats a pretty big gain for that size of cam through stock heads. How's it drive--any drivability issues?

Don't know, like my first post says I'm still waiting to have it shipped here. I have heard nothing but good things about the guy that tuned it so I'm sure it will drive great.
