Ok motor is in and has a break in tune.. the car made 322rwhp and 317rwq...
he has it running a little fat at 12.0 air fuel.. the motor went right on the rollers and had no miles on it .. It had 3 miles on it after the tuning was done..Now the motor has 250 miles on it and is running good.I am driving the car out of town on a 400 mile round trip this weekend so i should have new number in a few weeks.. oh and i will put 150 shot on it too.

Nice numbers, I'm sure they could be brought up a little more if the tune was leaned out a little. Since you are going to be spraying, I wouldn't sweat it.

Don't forget to change your oil soon!!!
