Don't reconsider, just make sure it's done right.

Check out the numbers in my sig for real LE potential, MPH is through a big stall automatic and a Ford 9", still on a mail order tune.

The car *will* break 120's.

You may want to consider tuning it ASAP. After my h/c install, my headers were glowing bright red. Not really visible in the day but real pretty at night. lol.

I would consider myself lucky as well.
I wouldn't be discouraged from getting any of the LE packages, Lloyd has some of the best "bang for the buck" power for LT1's around, you really can't beat it. Plus his customer service is second to none!
On a side note, i'm 18 rwhp from 400 - i'm not loosing any sleep over over it. In fact I'm just enjoying the power the car has gained.
You can get a dyno to tell you anything you want, the quarter mile is really where it matters. IMHO.

You should easily be in the 12.0-12.2 @ 116mph range with that power and a 1.9-2.0 60'. Thats movin out pretty good.

Is that where you are at? Just asking because we have similar power.

Thats pretty good on a stock tune. Who knows maybe that setup needs a more agressive and higher spark table to get you there, nice #s though. Looks like it can get better.

I actually only made it to the track when I had 368rwhp/336rwtq and I ran 12.5 @ 114mph w/2.0x 60'.

380 rwhp is very impressive. Congrats man.

Some of these guys are saying a tune wouldn't help much but I disagree.
Its not like yu just slapped in a small cam and threw on headers. You have a full heads and cam package and a tune is mandatory IMO.
Not to mention, some guys on here have picked up 7-10hp from a tune with just bolt ons!
I don't know what size injectors you have but I would go bigger injectors and have it tuned.

I think those 2 things, you could pick up another 10-15 hp/tq easy, maybe more.

Get'r done and go smack down some Cobra's!

I like that! lol
Yeah I have the Delphi 37lb injectors and LE ported intake. What I may need is ported maf and underdrive pulley to get it up there, but i'm not to concerned right now.
I would have gotten a dyno tune on Monday but the shop was ridiculous...
Got up at 5 to be there at 8:30 sharp as directed (2 1/2 hr drive) only to sit there for a half hour, the guy just looks at me like i'm crazy. They open at 9 the manager doesn't even look up just says in that cranky tired voice, "help you" ...... yeah you can I've been outside since 8:30, blah blah blah got into a disagreement about the price they quoted me, pulled my car around, then brought it back 10 mins later only to say, " can't tune your car plug wires are too close to headers, lt1's are just a pain and our dyno software actually just crashed" Errrrr, about the worst customer service I have ever gotten in my life, felt like my 400 dollars of business was a burden... anyway that's why it's not dyno tuned.

Good job! I have almost the same set-up with the same heads/cam package, and I just dyno'd on Saturday and got 384 rwhp and about 38X torque. Mine has a Bryan Herter tune as well, but still need to send it back in to him, it's running too rich. I expected to be around 410 rwhp, but?!?!

Nice numbers. Is that out of a 383?

You don't need a ported maf at all and a pulley might get you 5-10hp. Hands on tuning goes a long way. I gained 50rwhp 35 rwtq over a mailorder tune on my LE2 heads and BRE emission cam. If you're running the full LE2 with LE ported intake I wouldn't be happy until you get at least another 30 out of it. I'm waiting on my LE ported intake and have put down 411 rwhp 374 rwtq through an M6 and 12bolt rear. Get that thing fully tuned and then you'll really be smiling.

Hey Javier, are you still running a/c on your car?? Still thinking about pulling mine off but not sure. I want to get the most out of my LE3 package.

Yes, it's not currently in working condition (I haven't vac'd and recharged it yet), but all the equipment, compressor, etc, is still in there.

My goal is to have a fully streetable w/ air conditioning 10 second n/a LT1 car.

Hmm...it really sounds like the dyno may be off too. I have saw a difference of 20 RWHP on the same car between a good dyno and one run by morons.
