when I first bought my car, it was a 2002 C5 Z06, LG catless 1 3/4th, 33lb red top injectors, Cone air filter on stock bridge, Port/polished factory throttle body, factory Ti axle over exhaust. Made 409rwhp/378rwtq in Florida heat/humidity.
I have since changed that setup to a LS2 shorty, 240/244 cam, 1 7/8th catless LT's (3in off road X-pipe) TF heads, FAST 92(unported) , 90mm LS2 throttle body, Vararam intake, 60lb injectors. It made 471whp & 434wtq in NC (middle of June in 100+ degree weather)
Making 411 and 370 doesnt seem too bad. A stock FAST will only net you 5-10ish thru out the RPM range (ported will net more) The 1 7/8 LT's really arent that big, only 1/16th larger than the 1 3/4. The OBX's are a cheap route to go and thats not really a bad thing. If you were to get a set of name brand 1 3/4 you should be able to pick up another 5-10 or more thru out also. I would save up for a better/ligher clutch setup, then work on getting more power down.

Forgot to ask, is your cam near the size of my cam i just posted? Are you running stock injectors? You should ask to look at some files, if my injectors are way to small, seems your might be also. The tuner should let you know this, but maybe he just tuned for what you have now

The cam I have is a torquer v3 from Texas speed. The specs are 231/234 with like a .590 / .615. Or something like that with 112 lsa. I already put fast 36 lb injectors on it and I have a stage 2 monster clutch sitting in the garage waiting to go it. Just haven't gotten around to it yet
