Default low dyno?

i have all of the bolt ons...comp cam 232/234 .595/.598, mti stage 2 heads, fast 90/90, flp longtubes, 12 bolt, 3400stall, etc. Dynoed 412rwhp on a dynojet. does this seem low with that combo?

car also likes to die a lot, especially after something like a burnout at the track, its been tuned by mti, didnt think it was a cam i should be having a problem idling with?

seems about right. You need to consider drivetrain loss through an auto with a 12 bolt.
Sounds like it is time for a tune-up maybe.

i made the numbers in my sig with the same cam. you have aq auto but you have heads and the 90/90 set up. it shouldn't want to die, thats with the tune. what does your car run? thats whats important.

412 is good through an auto. What it runs at the track and on the street is more important than a number in my opinion.
