Bigger cam would have it closer to 450 and thats with the 205 heads. I really like these heads as cast for stock displacement engines. Theres a lot of power there.

Sorry, but that just flat-out SUCKS.

My friend put down 451/408 with Dart 205s and a F14 cam.
I put down 471/416 with Dart 225s and a F-15 cam and FAST 90/90

Hell, I was at 412rwhp cam-only (F15) through a stock TB and stock crank pulley and an LS6 Intake.

Both are Y-bodies, which eat more rwhp than F-bodies.

Re: Ls1-450 horse?

Different dyno's produce different power all over the nation. I really believe in track numbers myself.

The dyno we use is a Mustang and regularly puts out lower numbers than most of the dynos out there. However it traps the same speeds as cars making 30-50hp more.

I've seen many packages that we've done a few times over that will dyno much higher down south than they do up here in Michigan. Moral of the story is that the dyno is a tuning tool and needs to be regarded as such.

I don't have track numbers on this car yet, but when I do I will post them for comparrision.

Does this car have a Th400?

Well then why did you post those numbers?

Re: Ls1-450 horse?

No idea why you would post Mustang dyno numbers without saying they were in fact Mustang dyno numbers. Everyone knows that Mustang dynos usually put down 12-15% less rwhp than a Dynojet, so that's why there's a discrepency.

Good numbers.
