Finally Dyno'd my 396

Well I have been driving my car around and put some miles on the clutch and rear end. I drove it to NED for the Camaro/Firebird day just to put more miles on it and to see how I liked long trips in it.
I still had some driveablility issues with the car at part throttle but its fixed now, just had to spend more time in stop and go traffic to get it right.
Well the rear end is coming apart cause I'm not dealing with the gear whine I can't believe Strange can't set a set of gears in the rear end correctly.
I'm going to put a set of Motive/GM gears I have had good luck with those not whining at all.

Well I strapped it down to the dyno at NEDYNO and reved it to 6200 for the first time, it made 434 rwhp and 407 tq not bad for a N/A LT1/LT4 in the spring I will have the NOS hooked up and I'll put it back on the dyno. I just don't have the time to get it ready right now.

If i didn't have previous plans for Friday I would of actually taken it to the NED to see what it would of run.

Next year I'll have to run against some of the LS1's at NED and get the LT1/LT4 some respect.
