My dads 02 Vette just dyno'd at 340/302 yesterday on a mustang dyno at Collins in Waterford. He has heads/cam/headers and exhaust too. I thought that was low. Very low. Must be some **** in the air.

Get it to the track. If you trap around 120mph, everything is fine. If not, something's up.
That graph is...interesting.
