Default does this sound right?

ive got a 00 ram air 6 spd with a stock 10 bolt stock gears. ive got a ported t.b, HPE "S" cam,longtubes no cats with a magnaflow catback. my car put down 364 on a mustang dyno. the owner said it was tuned but the car is running extremely rich because you can smell gas and there was a ton of black smoke coming from my exhaust.

im just curious does that number seem really low for what i have. im asking because im seeing smaller cam cars put down much more than me. i have the stock ls1 intake and i know thats hurting me. was thinking fast 90/nw90 next but not sure.

I got 38x on their mustang dyno with a setup similar to yours.

Have you considered Fast 78mm intake (or ls6)....?

I'm sure Chuck and HPE will take care of you...
