Question Disappointing results at dyno.

Had my first dyno run today. Got 240 rwhp and 290 ft lb's of torque. Is this average for a car with my mods? I thought it was on the weak side.

at the track I run 8.8 in the 1/8 mile with 81 mph trap, and 1.9 60'. (only have an 1/8 mile track) would that also be consistant with other Stock LT1s?

I also have deleted the cat and have a flowmaster muffler. no headers.

Hello StoneRhino, You didn't mention the mileage or the type of dyno. If it was a mustang dyno and you have a 100,000 miles or more then the #'s aren't that bad when all you really have are rockers on a stock motor with no exhaust.

an 8.8 1/8 is about a 13.73 1/4 FYI

The car has 129,xxx miles. inertia dyno. I apologie, those numbers are not corrected. I would correct them, but I don't have the tickets in front of me at the moment.
