Brian. Don't take this wrong but i think you car should make more power than it does man.

I had an LT1 with a hot cam/stock heads/SLP dual cat shorties/SLP 2OTL and put down 330/326

Do you have your car tuned? I mean, those are good numbers and all, just thought, always, that it should/could be higher.

Or you can call Dal Slabaugh of Van Devere Pontiac-Buick-Oldsmobile at 1-800-362-9494. Got mine last week and it's good reading. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

Price compare with Jim Norman at Jennings Chevy in Glenview, IL, 847-729-1000 I think. He's like 10% over cost.
