Do these numbers look right?
Do these numbers look right? I'm making a lt1 on dynosim and i can get the numbers close but its not there yet so i want to know if my numbers look right so far or are my numbers off. I wasnt sure about the induction or cam area. 
Also what is the flywheel hp for a 94 camaro (my car). all these graphs are flywheel hp.

The numbers are small on the links, but it looks like you put in 276 degrees of duration @.050 with .447 valve lift. Oops! Look up the .050 duration for the stock cam you seem to be using. It's probably somewhere closer to 210 @ .050.
Dynosim isn't the best program out there. Of course GIGO always applies no matter how sophisticated the software.
If you have chassis dyno numbers for your car, try to duplicate the curves on the sim using the real valve events, head flows, exhaust restrictions, etc. that you have on your car. If you get an accurate baseline on the sim you can then look at what a mod will do.
Ed cuts right to the chase, doesn't he? IMO, you can learn a lot about engines from putting accurate numbers in a sim program, but as to designing you new cam with Dynosim, I wouldn't advise it.
