I think your capslock key may be broken... With those mods I would estimate you at 265hp, 13.9 sec quarter mile @ 101mph.

Welcome! Now please TURN OFF CAPS (people will think you are YELLING!)
I'd guess around 245 to the wheels...should get you down the 1320 in the high 13's.

LOL - They paid the dyno operator to give 'em good numbers.
Seriously, all dynos are different, all cars are different and weather plays a contributing factor. But, on average, I think you'd find the 99-04 would dyno from 220-235 RWHP bone stock. Figuring that the MAF (which, I'd guess is a C&L (and should be used as a paperweight only)) is worth a totally unreliable 5 HP, CAI 2-3 HP, TB & Plenum 6-8 HP, LTs, X pipe and muffs 15-20 HP. OK, so I'll bump my estimate up to 250. Don't get fixated on dyno numbers though. And it's not all about peak HP. How well can you launch, what kinda 60 ft time can you get and what kind of 1/8th or 1/4 mile time can you crank out? That's what it's all about.

67 thou and practically new? Hell, my 02 must be a toddler then at 30K. (just kidding ya bro!) Seriously, if taken care of, a V8 will, typically, outlast a smaller, higher revving motor. BUT, if used and abused, it'll waste away and fall apart just like any other.
And I'd watch out for some of those GMs out there. Yeah, they suck...but the LS1 is flat out fast.
To really get the most of what you've got - yep, the Prediator or, my preference, the SCT XCalibrator.

Stock 260 at the crank plus a few mods = 290 at the crank, maybe
Stock 220 at the wheels plus a few mods = 245 at the wheels, maybe

I just hit 20,000 on my 00' GT and I was mad when that happened.

Things just get better once you put the SC on.
