Default New Dyno Numbers here

Well while sitting around at Pro Dyno, I decided to Dyno the car before it gets the LS6 intake and Programmed..

Stock the car dynoed
297 rwhp and 302rwtq

with all mods I have now "Lid, TR 220/220 114 LSA, LT's and 3.73's
341 rwhp and 322 rwtq unlocked and untuned

Peak HP was at 5800 rpms and Peak TQ was at 5600 rpms weird

TQ seems a little low

My A/F ratio was about 13.8 across

Tuned and locked you'll surely see better results. Prolly 25-30rwhp and torque respectively would be my guess. 13.8 a/f Sounds kinda lean to me though

I am still waiting for my LS6 intake and tuning. I am getting the Intake tomorrow and the HP tuner came in today. I will post new numbers with that and a Locked converter.

Good deal. That intake will be worth 10-15rwhp easy w/ tune. You got a ported TB and ud pulley?

A 13.8 is lean.
......keep in mind that's on a dyno (very little resistance) on the road you will have more resistance and this resistance will cause your A/F to run even a little more lean
Personally, I think a 12.7-12.9 dyno reading is best.

Good food for thought:
Run a little rich, you could loose a little HP
Run a little lean, you could loose an engine

What is a good A/f ratio to be at? 13.0 is normal right? wouldn't 11 to 12.0 be best?

As I stated above.....

12.7 to 12.9 A/F ratio is great for a dyno reading

Anything below 12.4 is starting to get to rich - but you'll just loose a little HP and gass milage (have to change plugs sooner)
Anything above a 13.3 is on the verge of getting too lean - this could lead to engine damage/failure.
