Default Dyno numbers coming this week.

After 8 years of owning this car it now has a setup that is worthy to talk about.
Engine mods:
6.0 stock bottom end
4.0030 bore
Mahle pistons
10.3 to 1 compression
Trick Flow heads
cam but I can't remember the specs
90 F.A.S.T intake and TB.
Fuel system, brakes and susp. have already been upgraded. Exhaust is Kooks headers offroad y with a cutout and a Magnaflow. All this besides the bore, and exhaust was on a stock 5.3 shortblock and it put down 389hp through a 6 spd with a Z-06 clutch, and a 12 bolt with 4.11 It ran good but it blew a head gasket, so I upgraded. I'm hoping somewhere between 450 and 500, but we shall see. Any thoughts?

It has a base tune not a final tune. I drove it yesterday for about 8 miles and parked it outside overnight cause I needed the garage for something else then this morning when I went to leave is when it all started. I think it might be hyrdolocked from all the rain.

This implies you were WOT on an untuned engine.

Do you normally spend thousands on fixing it only to put off getting it fully tuned before mashing the go pedal?

And how would that have happened after sitting? Do you have a hood and intake on the car?
