Default Dyno Numbers

I finally had our car dyno'd for the first time. Pretty much all of the mods were on the car when we purchased it. RWHP 348.9 RWTQ 348 This was on a Dyno Jet on a pretty hot 90 degree day. I was hoping to see a little higher numbers for a heads and cam car, but I figure adding more mods my self will be part of the fun. :chevy Dyno Graph: http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c5/pjazz//dyno.jpg

I agree, you should be way closer to 400RWHP.

I've got most of the reciepts. The heads have CNC stamped right on them. I also have card from comp cams with it's specs. Unfortunately I'm not sure how to read the numbers. I planned on calling them to see if it was just a very mild cam.

The cam specs will look like this:
(for example) 226/226 .591/.591 112
the first two numbers are the exhaust valve/intake valve duration (the amount, in degrees of rotation, that the valves are open out of 360)
the second two numbers are the lift, in inches, that the I & E valves are open, and the last number, 112, is the lobe separation angle, in degrees as well...
