Default Dyno'd the Z this weekend

Well, its about time I got this bitch on the dyno. I bought the car last December with only 5k miles on her and started moddin right away. The heads and cam went in over the summer, a month or two after the stall went in. After a few tuning sessions on the street over the last few months, I have been waiting to get some dyno time to tune for WOT. Anyway, my tuner and I finally got her all dialed in this weekend on the dyno. The car is an auto and my mods are in my sig below. It took 9 pulls to get everything dialed in just right, cuz as usual, the car was being a bitch. I swear this thing is possessed!! Anyway, she put down 404/368 which is pretty stout for an auto with a small to mid-size cam. I will try to post the video and dyno sheet later, but I figured Id go ahead and post the numbers. I am pretty happy with them, so yall let me know what you think

Oh and by the way, the heads and cam are: TSP PRC Stage 2.5 5.3L Heads/228R Cam

Sounds about right. The 228R cam is a great stout choice, and also very underated.
Good Combo.

Nice, almost the same numbers I had (400/367) with my Patriot LS6 heads and 224 cam. I'm an M6, but I'm also going through a 12-bolt with 4.10s and a heavy driveshaft, so these numbers sound spot on.

Yup, still have the stock LS6 intake manifold. I cant really justify buying the 90/90 combo. It doesnt seem to be worth the money. But if I ever have a grand sitting around to blow, I guess Id consider it. As far as 1/4 times, I havent been to the track yet. This spring I will bring her to the track once i get my 3.73 gears in and some good drag radials on. thanks fellas

Nice #'s for an auto man. I have the same cam, and love it. Just right. My car put down 362/347 on a Mustang Dyno calibrated for Dynojet #'s. This is with STOCK heads though and -4 degrees of timing for the nitrous.

I went with 114 LSA for the spray, and with a cheap kit 150 shot saw 498rwhp/511rwtq on this cam. So, I am pretty sure that its doing its job.

So next I am going to throw a stall and cage in it and run it that way for a while. Until I can save some dough for some Trickflows.

What LSA did you go with?
