Seems high. You actually seen this dyno sheet or you was told this?

I was at the Dyno while I was having it tuned and a custom Superchips aftermarket chip set up.

So yes that is the Dyno numbers. The Dyno Tech seemed suprise as well but he said he had run across a few others simular to mine with the same mods and the numbers went from 325-350 RWHP
 
If the port job on your heads and intake is REALLY good and you have 11:1 compression, I could believe that much power through a 5-speed. But not through an AOD. I think that dyno reads high.
 
Have you been to the track with the car?
As for the dyno #'s I know the operator can give you corrected #'s or actual or SAE #'s
and depending on the day they can range 20 or so hp.
The #'s in my sig are corrected for weather, The uncorrected #'s for that day and run were 396hp. Correceted down, but a previous days session(months before the correction was moving the #'s higher. The correction helps you gauge differences in mods on the same dyno but during different conditions.

Yes the car runs 12.08 @ 112 MPH These are the corrected numbers.

you actually ran the car or was that a gtech rating? the time doesnt quite look like it matches the speed to me. time looks quick, but speed looks low :shrug:

your dyno numbers seem quite high to me also. yes I am jealous but still they dont look right.
 
Seems way low if you ask me. For what you have listed as mods. I have a stock block, heads and cam. Just a blower and intake and made 332 rwhp.

The actual time according to the time slip is 12.089 @ 112.764 MPH

344 HP @ 5650 RPM and 381 Torque @ 5100 RPM

381 rwtq is impossible with your motor (VERY difficult with any NA 306). Also, 381 ft-lbs at 5100 rpm would equal 370 hp at 5100 rpm. :stick:

Not really.... sometimes auto's have wierd TQ spikes that show up on dynos ...all be it ussually at much lower RPM :D

Seems high but believeable... some cars are just palin stronger than others & attention to detail is pretty much everythingf

I think you missed my point. 381 ft-lbs at 5100 rpm is 370 hp at 5100 rpm. Mathematical fact. But he says it peaks at 344 at 5650. :shrug:

Plus, an auto with a 2600-3000 rpm convertor isn't going to cause a torque spike at 5100 rpm.

The numbers just don't add up. It's about time to throw out the flag. :bs:

No I didn't miss it just stating something that may or may not be well known.
But yes I totally agree. :nice:
