Default Judge my set-up

I am new to the LS cars, having always owned mustangs, and was wondering if I am leaving any power on the table with the set up on my 01 SS Camaro. It has a comp 281/293 cam, ls6 intake, and ported/ polished 241 heads, and full exhaust with the stock ls1 bottom end through a built 4l60 and a 3600 yank. The rear is a stock 10 bolt with 3.73 gears. Is there anything about this setup that would be worth changing before it hits the dyno that would net some decent gains? It is going on the dyno next week and I will hit the track the following weekend.

That's one hell of a cam you got there.

That's what I was thinking, it seems overkill for the car. I bought it with that set up but it seems to lack some low end power.

So it hasn't been tuned that you know of yet? What about injector size ?

The previous owner did not know a lot about the car, he said he bought it with all the work already done. I am going off of what he said for the cam and he told me it actually had a ls1 intake but I checked out the part numbers and it is an ls6. It has a tune but if I had to guess it is nothing but an internet tune because at times the idle is off and it is running a little rich. I need to double check the injectors also.

Mine has similar bolt ons but have stock injectors and it's been tuned . I have a feeling that the injectors have to be maxed out .

Since it has the ls6 intake I am hoping that they swapped the rails/injectors too and if that is the case then they shouldn't be. I am going to check the part numbers on them tomorrow.
