Awesome results! That cam should peak at around 6400-6500 rpms you have some more power in her. Get your valvetrain sorted out and I'm sure you'll be at 420+rwhp!
What's the idle set at?

idle's set at 1,000 RPM and sounds pretty kick *** if i may say so myself


yea i really think it'll hit 420rwhp without a problem, especially with these cutouts being very strategically placed

and i'll probably be at the track this weekend. im gonna go ahead and tear down my rear end even though its working ok now (i was having issues with my posi, then they cleared up the next day) and make sure everything looks ok. it prob wont take but an hour or so to yank the carrier out and double check it to make sure. but hopefully i'll be out for TTE's Poker Run and the track.

CAM has a flat rate charge of tuning a stock displacement LT1. it's $400 and worth every penny in my opinion. for those of you that are thinking 'oh well hell i can get a nitrous kit for that much and add 100rwhp'... i really wish you could have ridden in the car before Jeff tuned it. it was really rough and had no real street manners. now, it's honestly a damn pleasure to drive

Nice numbers, good to see some 400rwhp+ numbers from LE heads.
Are you on a stock short block?

Re: 410rwhp from LE heads and 847... (graph inside)

and before anyone asks, i will not be responding to PMs asking for copies of my tune. im 18 years old and paid damn near every cent to my name to get my car on the rollers and tuned by a professional and it would not only be shortcutting myself, but also short cutting carolina auto masters if i just handed out their tune as im sure they have some special blends they do not want floating around. the best advice i can give to you is to set yourself up with the fine folks at C.A.M for yourself because i damn sure cant afford to be handin out my tune. hope yall understand. thanks

Very nice numbers!! I knew Lloyd had it in his heads with a nice tune.

On a side note, Please listen to ROOSTER93V8..he is correct in saying what he did.

Re: 410rwhp from LE heads and 847... (graph inside)

thanks for the backup guys,

I couldn't imagine this guys mindset to let cars go like that.. ESPECIALLY on a cam with overlap like that.. YOu see that overlap bleeds raw fuel and air threw the exhaust so the car will actually like to run richer than a normal hotcammed or 305 cammed car..

SOO i would bet he can add about 15 more ftlbs of torque and be a ton safer if he shot for different AFRs. He just needs to play on his fuel/spark

Re: 410rwhp from LE heads and 847... (graph inside)

I wanted to see his 400-4000 timing aswell but ohh well. As for running cams rich yeah I think big cams do like to run a little rich but because fuel goes by the overlap doesn't mean that the Wide Band 02 will pick it up, if anything the wideband o2 only picks up the fresh oxygen that goes by the overlap but not the fuel, hence O2 sensor , so in reality with big cams you ussually may see a lean reading while its acctually rich because the excess fuel that goes through the overlap isn't picked up by the o2 sensor while the oxygen is.

As for leaving it lean like that I think its on the lean side plus remember thats a DynoJet dyno, guess what. If its 13:1 on the dynojet its ussually 13.5:1 on the street or leaner, this is because the dynojet doesn't put as much load on the car, thats why for tunning Mustang Dyno is best but Dynojet will read higher numbers, ussually dyno it on the Dyjet & then bump bump the fuel up a few points or so, ussually it doesn't cost you much more power either, I went from 11.9:1 to 12.8:1 & gained 2rwhp but then again I'm using LS1 coils & LTCC so I figured if you can LIGHT the mixture chances are going leaner won't make much more power, its ussually the guys that run weak ignitions that gain a bunch of power.

Remember, if you see 13.8:1 on a Dynojet you're prolly well over 14:1 on the street, what do your o2s read? low 800's or high 700's I bet? I don't know what dyno your using though either so who knows.

Matt.
