ok..

372.6rwhp SAE corrected
378rwtq

the barometer was 29.2 (correction)

im happy.. this is on a street tune (tuned without a wideband) and runs a tad rich.. this is awesome.. im well pleased.. and my tuner was pretty much right on the money with his guess..

peak HP was @ 5888rpm and peak torque is at 5225

the Barometric pressure of the atomsphere..

low pressure days results in lower hp #'s..not by much, but typically 10-15 if really low, like say 27 baro

on high pressure days we usually see better hp results.. i help my friend run his dyno shop at times, so he fills me in on the little details.

Very nice numbers.

I know you probably stated it before, but what supporting mods do you have. I've been looking at this thread for awhile and thinking of going w/ your setup.

Ah, the 4.11 gears explains why his #'s are so close to mine w/ the Hotcam. Definitely good #'s then.

Thanks Kevin.

Well looks loke I'm halfway there. The 4.11's should be in later this week(12bolt) then I'll make my choice on which cam. I'm aimming for around the same Hp #, but my main concern is spring life. I dont want to change and check springs every now and then.

Congrats on the new cam! Just curious, how do you like the 4.11's with this cam? I've been thinking of switching to 3.73's but my 3.42's already make 1st gear worthless with the ASA.
Anyways, again, congrats on the new found power!

From what I've read the ASA cam won't be good for a supercharger because of the valve overlap that is ground in will cause you to loose cylinder pressure that is made by the compressor. All the extra pressure will go down the exhaust!
