Glad it has all come together! Assuming everything regarding the engine is assembled properly, no vac leaks, properly calibrated etc. then it sounds like your drive train might be burning up 20-30#'s. Either way, a good first session & now with dyno data and further data logging/tinkering you can likely refine the setup to get it to run to potential. 
On p2v, I generally want a theoretical minimum in the .06X"+ range. A bit more than some of the grinds commonly run, but that safety margin has worked out well thus far for guys who want to just bolt things together. Since every cam is QC'd I can pick what should be a safe valve location/chamber volume for the individual setup. I can account for variances due to the tolerance range of the timing set, but not things like inordinate timing set wear, crank index, etc. which may bump actual clearances a bit in either direction. It is always best to check, and if someone wants a max effort setup then it is generally a necessity.

Thank you to advanced induction, they were great at answering all my questions and setting me up with exactly what I wanted out of my car.
I will be receiving my drag wheel/tire set up soon so that I can hit the track. I'm confident that this set up has a low low 11 in it!

BTW guys I will be going to a different dyno soon for another run. Yesterday I was told a cam only c6 z06 only put down 480/430.....low low low This was the same dyno I was on and another friend of mine with prc 5.3, fast 90 and a 231/237 cam only put down 418/350
so Im convinced this is a heart breaker dyno

I'd venture to say that you just don't have a dyno friendly setup (stalled auto, heavy *** wheels, geared 12 bolt). Who did your tuning? Any track runs yet?

Sorry to say but that dyno is far from a "heart breaker". My H/C Camaro put down 450/400 the very next day after putting down 451/399 on ProDyno's dynojet. 384 stroker did 471/440 in 110* weather too. Hell, my tune only Cobalt SS running on E47 put down 311/360 I'd venture to say that you just don't have a dyno friendly setup (stalled auto, heavy *** wheels, geared 12 bolt). Who did your tuning? Any track runs yet?

I've done mostly all the work on my car myself besides the transmission building. Check out azfullthrottle.com for the local car scene. Join up and introduce yourself!
