Those numbers are STD, not SAE. You need SAE numbers to compare to other dyno charts.

Was it hot and humid the day that you dynoed? If it was, that could hurt your numbers.

You can convert the numbers if you know what the temperature was, the humidity and the barometric pressure that day.

Either way, you were running pretty rich at about 12 a/f.

Those numbers don't look to bad. A stock Lt1 with an A4 will dyno around 240 to 250, so a 20 to 30 rwhp pickup is pretty good for your mods. Did you run on a wide band? I would think there could be more hp to pick up with another tune, just curious to see what your A/F is....

HP number don't mean anything. Seems like you are running good numbers from your setup.

STD still uses conversion...it is not the run as is...it's numbers are different than SAE because of different variables. STD can still compare against someone else STD.

Edit - your #'s do look 20 rwhp down though.
