Default My New set up = 500rwhp??

I just got my car back...

370, speed inc SC2 blower cam 224-232 114lsa, Ported factory heads, Kooks 1 7/8 headers, ls6 intake.
New 4l85e trans with 3k stall converter, ford 9" rear.
504 rwhp & 599 torque both @ 4300rpm

These numbers don't seem right to me. I was expecting like 450hp & lower torque numbers.
What do you guys think?

Sounds like converter flash...unless you have the blower on the car already and stopped the run at 4400rpm.

Peak horsepower at 4500 RPMs seem.......odd.

Post the graph. That's way too much torque for 370ci. Something was off.

The torque figure is converter flash period. So that's just operator error to include a false number in the figures...he should know better and give you the proper number at torque peak not the highest number that the dyno shows.

As far as power, that also sounds way off. But it could be a loosely calibrated dyno with STD correction so it's possible...but again not believable.

I would chalk it up to a poorly run dyno and take it somewhere else if you really want to know numbers.

I confronted him and he was trying to explain how the dyno is and all this nonsense meanwhile I have looked a numerous heads & cam dyno graphs and none of them are like mine. peak hp @ 4300rpm? Come on, im not stupid. I don't know why he cant just say "Yeah this doesent look right. Somthings wrong." I told him I was expecting in the low 400's and he said I was the first one to complain that the numbers were too low.



Quick Reply: My New set up = 500rwhp??
