Default HELP! Heads/cam ls1 down on power

Kinda stumped here, recently Did heads and cam on my 99 ls1. Ms3 cam with a 113 lsa, ported pro comp 225cc heads, ls6 intake, longtubes and other small bolt ons. Car put down 337whp???? And made a 12.9 pass with radials. I've seen other h/c cars put down wayyy better numbers than that. I double checked pushrod length and it's good, I've had the tune looked at and it's fine. I just can't figure out what's going on.

Is the car a 6 speed or auto? If its an auto do you have an aftermarket stall converter?
Was it on a mustang dyno?
What was your trap speed?
