Great numbers man, very very close to my old 224 setup, and that setup had some touched up 241's so it was considered H/C. Are you running the XE-R lobe cam (.581 lift) or XR (.563)?
My car is not a daily driver. That said with this setup it could be and with know issues. After the tune it idles smooth with a nice lope. It will pull from 1500 till I decide to stop. After the PCM learns a little more it should only get better.
^^ yea, that cam is slightly bigger than my old one and on better lobes, but regardless, those are killer numbers cam only. Those are the kind that **** people off when they buy the cam and expect the same results! Lol.

I run that exact same cam, but I've got a 12 bolt and 4.11's loaded in the rear. Your report makes me feel good about my numbers too. Thanks and have fun. We've got too much snow in Chicago to even think about going for a quick ride.
