378rwhp@6200rpm 383lb ft torque

Thats with a 700R4 and a 3200 stall converter (3% more drivetrain loss)

The dyno guys said with a T56 it would have been over 400rwhp.

I wouldn't worry too much about your dyno numbers if your MAP was unplugged. You should be easily over 350rwhp with proper tuning.

Thanks Fred I was looking for some input on the MAP sensor. I seemed to think that the car was running in open loop, and using some default timing maps to run on. Anyway I will try to get her on the dyno again, before to much longer. My original goal is to run 11's NA I think that is doable without new heads. there seems to be guys running stock heads (that have been worked) putting down 400+ rwhp. lets see what tuning will do.

Please post the numbers when you get the MAP issues taken care of.

i have a 97 z with a 355 forged interals 210/224 cam and stock heads that are ported and polished and i put down 403RWHP and 378RWTQ with stock exhaust manifolds. that was with a very safe tune.

i think there is alot of room for improvement.

Who did the heads?

1slowLT1-
did the track numbers back it up? 400rwhp should be good for 118 depending on conditions.

Map Issues are taken care of the connector fell out of the sensor, it is now held in place with a tie strap. Will dyno next time our club has a dyno day. $30 for three pulls is an awesome price.

I don't know why it's so dang expensive around here. Cheapest one I know of is SLP at $175 for three pulls.

It sucks, especially when you're trying to get a speed density car dialed in with mail in tunes.

I still call Bs to 1slowlt1.

Let me get this straight your call name on here is 1slowlt1, but yet you have possibly the highest dyno i have ever seen on here with a very small cam and stock manifolds. Sorry, but without a dyno sheet and verification of mods, BS. unless your car was built on a day when EVERY GM plant employee recieved an extra week vacation and a 10000 bonus.

As to the 383 with cc306, get that bad boy tuned and eventually some GOOD heads and the sky is the limit.

I have to agree with TexasTA on this one, there is no freakin way in hell a 355 with that small of a cam, and stock manifolds is going to put out that kind of HP. UNLESS it is strapped to a mustang dyno!!!
