Who did the cam install? Was it degree'd correctly? If its a tooth off (retarded) it will probably still run with reduced power.

Ive seen LS3 cars make 430-440rwhp with just full bolt-ons and dyno tune, without a CAM.

However, no 2 dynos are the same. Dynojet numbers will read higher then mustang dyno numbers. Humidity, weather, elevation, it all plays a factor.

Well different dynos are going to give different numbers. Dyno jet dynos are known to be a bit more generous then mustang dynos. Weather conditions can also factor in to results. Don't get hung up on comparing to others. Use the dyno as a tuning tool to see benefits of your mods.

If you had bad gas then yes you could still have more timing left in your tune which is hp left on the table. Try using Rhino or Matt at FSP and they can squeeze all that HP out!!

the power is very close for a 223 cam. as mentioned above if you had some bad gas it could be a few more ponies.
