you should be happy i put a TR trak cam 231/234 .640/.590 in my car last week and only got 331 RWHP. TR Tech told me that the Mac mids unported, 2 1/2" y pipe, and ls1 intake were killing my power and the cam you went with is even bigger than mine so i think maybe you need to upgrade your intake manifold.

You did a max of 366hp. Im pretty sure that was unlocked. If it was locked it would be more like 385-390hp. Thats not to bad. I did 372 last year on that dyno unlocked and ran an 11.9 that same week shutting down early due to 411 gears and a 26inch tire. Go the opening weekend at the grove run 11s and be happy. Oh ya what part of Chicago are you in?

I'd see if they can work a little more on the tune. Some cars like a little more fuel than the 13:1 AFR a lot seem to target. Your cam might make more power with 12.5:1. It sounds like that wasn't even something the tuner considered if he only made three pulls.

Hey cash its seth, I was there that day at flp with my buddies vette.....sorry to hear the low numbers those guys are ****** stupid....you should go talk to them I have seen a couple g5x3s and they all were right on the 400 mark....I would go talk to them thats no right my buddy made 375 on a ****** z06 cam with just exhaust and intake no pulley or nothin......I would call them and let them know how shitty they where not to mention what asses they acted like when I first got there. I will never go back to that place, nor would my buddy with the vette.....waste of time and money.
