Nice how big of a shot?? What did it make NA? And you didn't swap out the stock timing chain tensioner ? Don't be surprised if it breaks.

Hopefully its a 50 shot, I'd hope it would make more power then that even on a 75 shot. If that engine is only putting down 440 on motor something is wrong or those heads aren't as good as people think they are.

I agree with you. I'm guessing its on a reallyyyy conservative tune. With that set up it should be seeing 475 motor alone. Also depends on the cam specs which they don't disclose.

I'm guessing the tune may be soft plus it could be like my car the 1 3/4" headers held it back a bit with ported heads and spray, switching to 1 7/8 gained a bit.

For some reason the flow numbers posted for the MAST heads only flow what well ported stockers do, at least until .7 lift but I don't know of anyone running that. The MAST BL set I configured just came out at $3,700 ouch!

with the setup with no nitrous it should put down at least 450rwhp or more
I think they should replace the exhaust with 3inch cat back and 1 7/8 headers

That's a pretty big stall, so maybe it's eating up some of the numbers. Hell it doesn't matter about dyno numbers take it to a track and get some real world numbers.

I have a 3600 stall and put down more then that with a 75 shot... except I don't have $3,500 heads. I think our OEM heads flow pretty damn well so its hard to make power with a head swap alone, our heads flow well enough to let a 427 sing, so they are plenty for our lowly 364.
