332 hp, 319 tq. Mods in sig. Tq seems low. I think I'm leaving some power on the table since I have an emissions tune and I was running 87 octane.

Hey cool. I have the same cam in my 94, LE1 heads, 1.6comp pro mag rr, stock injectors, melling pump, Mac 1 5/8th mid length w/cutout... my tune is fairly stock and I put down 332/332.

I've been talking to a couple guys that have tuned several LT1's and after looking at mine they're thinking 350rwhp is very attainable for me...plus i just passed my etest

get rid of that emissions tune after you take the test. Than when you have to go back two years later just load up the old tune.
That 87 octane is killing you. Never run that junk, that gas alone i think is holding you back from 8-10 hp and same with your tune. Re tune it on 93, i will bet you theres another 10-20hp in your car.
Why were you running the 87 in the first place?

It's cheaper and has no effect on daily driving.

should have just bought a port package, probably would have been putting down more hp and saved a couple bucks

your correct about no effect other than major mpg losses, no power due to lots of timing being pulled out. But aside that your right, theres nothing.
