hit the dyno today boy she was running off the charts rich in the beggining and was hard working with a software that was probably 70 percent complete, waiting for updates to help pull more hp out of this thing for now it is 417.

So your at 417/373 on stock manifolds? If so those are some really good numbers, what are the specs on the cam and heads, and what other mods do you have?

no stock manifolds only stock manifold would be the intake but im thinking of switching over to the fast 90 but im trying to figure how much work it is going to be to make it work, cam specs - 232/236/113, stage 3 heads flowing 315 cfm, jba shorties (are killing me, bought long tubes to install), spintech exhaust, new era intake, 180 thermostat. spark plugs etc. small stuff.

I assume those are SAE corrected numbers. If so, they already take in consideration the heat and correct to a standard, lower temp.
