Thumbs up 440 rwhp N/A on stock bottomend

First off a BIG thanks to Geoff @ Thunder for spending HOURS on the dyno today tuning my car!!!
I'll make this short & sweet as I still have plenty of beer to drink!!!
In full street trim (through the muffler etc...) 395 at the wheels.
Now in full race trim (cutout open, belt droped, & converter locked) 440 rwhp 395 rwtq
Needless to say I'm VERY HAPPY and I'll give full details soon... I need to go back to drinking beer & celebrating!!!
Side note: still stock bottom end, ported factory heads (by me) 1.94/1.50 valves, 3800 Vigilante, crappy (6 month old) gas.
Better #'s in the near future.
Steve...

Kick one back for me tonight

Congrats, Steve. Long time coming, and it looks like your cam is well matched to your head work.
