I say thats a very very happy Dyno. I had a larger cam with ported stock heads and made about 420 to the wheels. Hes also go a 8.8 rear which is gonna take up a little bit more power..

Impressive numbers and times, but that is a pretty healthy-sized cam. 240/244

Agree that is a happy dyno but pretty impressive none the less. There is a F14 cam only car around here running 11.70's so there are some freaks out there.....

A guy I know (He's a member here) is cammed, bolt ons, & a Fast intake and made 443rwhp. He ran 11.6 @ 123mph. I posted a vid of his car recently in the street racing section

That is a huge cam for a stock displacement LS1, I can definitely see where the power is coming from. The 4.10 gear is really helping his E.T., probably about .5 second difference from a stock 3.42.

Totally believable. 3800lbs with 120mph traps pretty much validate it. My buddy "Demon 383" on here '99 FRC put down 430whp with the Vindicator cam-only, so i'd imagine 440 would be a realistic 'high' number for a solid rear car. These example are surely best case scenario's though and definitely not what you would see on an average basis.
