not making power like it suppose to
bought a 2004 lq4 rebuilt by thompson motorsports. put a vindicator cam, 317 heads, ls6 intake, full bolt ons. m6. only made 320!!!!? tuner said it might be the crank bearings dragging the crank. i already put 500 plus miles on it and everything seems to be fine. oil pressure good, oil looks ok, its not silver. changed to oil twice. car also has the recommended 4.10s.... i dont know what else to do...... any input is greatly appreciated

First and foremost, take it to a real tuner and then see what's wrong with your car.

What the hell is the deal with these socalled shops lately? Just the other day a guy was told his car wasn't running because his cam might have been in 180 degrees off??? Anyone that knows ANYTHING about an ls motor knows that is impossible!!!!

well everything seems to be fine. i know the compression is a lil low but still... the only thing i can think of is maybe the cam wasnt degreed right? but would that really rob 100rwhp?
