well, the numbers tell me that with a tune i'm going to drag him with a much smaller cam, and my stock lifters will live to tell the story and his wont. see, my car is setup for the track and i bet runs better than his or your's with less power. as you did say, it is in the setup surrounding the numbers, but what i was saying is that it didn't make real good power for the size of the cam in it. FOOL.

Dyno numbers are relative. No one cares what you made. Its what set car makes on set day with set mods. If a change is made, a loss or gain is seen depending on weather, correction factor, AIT, etc etc. So in your defense, he picked up signifigant power from his last setup.

with guys running 244/248+ duration cams in stock cubic inch LS1s now the cam i am running is relatively small in my book. my best friend's .813" lift solid roller gen3 408 is big though but that's really another catagory in-and-of itself....417 is a good number cam only but not what it could be with a cam that big. hope you put some comp 850 lifters in there though mellow, or you'll be wishing you had later.

Just my opinion, a cam peaking at 6900rpm is a cam I would not want to use on a stock bottom end and on stock rockers and lifters. 6900 is where I'd like to have the limiter set at.

yeah, around that somewhere...hoping for similar results now with the car heavier and now with 3.42 gears. the car was stripped back in the day but is full weight plus some now but the suspension is still the same, i just don't feel like gutting it again. [thread hijack off]....

You said you have 3.42 gears, but your sig says 4.10's so I guess your sig doesn't answer all my questions

sig says clutch, 4.10s, and nitrous next...questions answered. the car has 3.42 gears in it now...like i said, if you have any questions for me feel free to pm me and ask whatever you want. 417 is still lacking for the cam in that car, and the stock lifters with that cam make me laugh. have a good one.

You made 376 at fastech with that cam
then went to rpm and added the pulley and other tuning and got over 400 (so you said)
so you didn't gain what you said you did.
from cam to cam after rpm tunign you gained less than 37rwhp.
But just to quote.
so 391-413.4 = 22.4
either way, nice new #s.

haha
i agree that 413 is a good number to start with, i would just expect a little more personally if it were me.
