Texas air has nitrous in it. That explains most of it.

Here's a few dyno runs; the green line is with Hypertech "tuning", the other two are without.

That does seem a little high. Your "stock" numbers look to be right on par w/ where they should have been.. But for your mods - yup.. Those are some pretty high dyno numbers. For most LT1's, it takes full exhaust and all the other bolt ons to get 305rwhp out of it.. 'Course, they also put out around 340rwtq w/ that much rwhp.

Get that sucker to the track

Heh, that's because everything is bigger and badder in Texas, even the cars.
And 400 hp cars are in abundance in Houston so I hear.
