Default lost 14hp with cam and header install?

I dynoed my car before I did headers and a cam, I have hooker long tubes, off road pipe, cutout, and TR224/224 110 , before headers and cam I put down 335hp 340tq, Castrol had a portable dyno at some carwash/lubefast place in town and I got mine dynoed there for free, I dynoed 321hp. Maybe the dyno is fucked up? Because I know for a fact my **** is allot faster with the cam and headers. Im going to dynolab thursday and get a dyno there and see if I dont gain about 50hp.

Yeah, that is messed...go to a 'real' dyno and check it out - preferrably the same place you went to the first time.

Morgan, portable dynos arent worth a ****. GO back to Arthurs and see what you pull. You are probably in the need for a tune with that 224.

BTW, I never heard from you, hows the tranny?

yo Ron, the tranny is good, it should do the trick until I can save up the money to get a built t56 or put something else in it, like an M22. Thanks again for the deal Ron. Hows your project coming along?
