You guys ready for these numbers? 240RWHP and 257 RWTQ.

That translates to 288hp and 312tq at the motor considering a 20% drivetrain loss trough the automatic tranny.
Umm stock 350 tpi numbers are 245 hp 345 tq, theres something very wrong with your motor. Is your motor a 305 or 350? If its a 305 thats what your problem is, they dont even make the afr 195's anymore because they are borderline too much head for a 350, so if its on a 305 thats why your numbers suck. And if you have a 350 theres no excuse for making less then 450 hp with your combo, something would have to be really wrong. Hell with your combo in a 350 your worries should be about cracking an L98 block, i dont know why in the hell your numbers suck so bad, but with those numbers my tpi350 with exhaust and ported stock heads would probably out run you, which isnt right.

Whoa.. ya, something is DEFFINENTLY wrong w/ you car Maybe you should look into someone else tuning your car or something; try MadZ28 or PCM-For Less etc..
But even if he *does* have a 305, w/ all those mods, your car should be a BEAST. But like Doug said, maybe you have way to much head
