LS3 434 build
I put the car back on the dyno yesterday. My best pull was 573 hp and 524 lbs of torque, a gain of 34hp and 32 lbs of torque.
I have the graph in the dyno section of this forum. The car peaked around 6500 rpm, which is also where idc is around 100%.
I'm still using the stock ls3 injectors and I'm going to upgrade to bigger injectors soon and try again. So far I have around 1500 miles on this build with no issues.

What are the cam specs again?
What intake was on the car before the fast hi ram?
Have you got a dyno sheet of current results?
Would really like to see,
Good build OP
I had a stock ls3 intake on the car before, however I never dynoed the car with that intake. Here is the dyno sheet

Being a 434 I think the cam timing is a bit conservative too.
But i think you mentioned you want it to drive well.
I'm curious if you were to fit a 248/256 113lsa+4 camshaft how that would go in the mid range and top end.
That fast hi ram flows a lot of air.
Impressive. Power and torque are almost matched.

I was only being sarcastic. lol
That cam spec stated would work well for the op if he wanted more from his combo especially with that hi ram.
It's begging for more cam.
a smaller cam with more converter will make for better performance and drivability. Dyno numbers gets in people's heads so more cam is what's done to fix it. Your own thread is an example, you have been chasing a dyno number and though you spec cams in all these random threads, you hired pat g to spec yours. Im not bashing, just an observation.

we all want more cam , but some stay on the mild side because it fits their criteria for street car. Like you do with converters. Your converter is on the small side especially for the size cams you spec to people. It would be slow at the track big cam with low stall converter.

I know small stalls and big cams don't work.
I hired Pat G to spec mine because I was curious to see what he would do.
He certainly knows his stuff and chose almost the same valve events as me but with half the split my old cam had.
I had help from other members on here to spec and they helped me a lot.
Personally I like to have a professional's opinion and judgement so that way I can learn something from that too.
By the way there are two members on here who used my cam recommendations and were thrilled with the results.
One was a pro charged vehicle and the other NA.
My own thread did not go the way I intended but it's just how it is.
Live and learn.
If you notice in my new thread.
I'm not picking any of the parts based on my own knowledge.
Glad to hear. Thats a really cool street car thats just my style!
Id like to see more of Che70elles car in action too. Read his build thread on Lateral-G, iirc. Another sick build done right.

Ask and you shall receive. Picked up a new GoPro to film my sons baseball stuff, and while I was at it, I grabbed a mount to put it on the roll bar in the car. Next time out, I’ll have film.
