486 sounds about right. You may not see much increase. I've been wrong more than right.

Nope. Everything looks fine. Double checked cam timing and stuff. Guess the dyno just wasn't happy with my car. Nothing seems to be out of place. So, its going back together now. New catback should be here soon. Going to add that and will re-dyno the first week of may. So we can at least see what kind of difference a catback swap makes (if any)on a heads/cam car I guess.

If I ever have a chance to strap it on a different dyno, I most likely will. But otherwise, if it's running good...it is what it is I suppose.

You nailed it Frank! It drives great.. except for the power steering. Once we got it running we noticed that the fluid level was low so we added some and the steering is still harsh and the pump is super noisy. Any ideas? I put the pump to the side during the build, I didn't even take it off. I did loosen the rack so I could slide it forward to get the oil pan down..

I'm guessing you got some air in the power steering system.
Top it off, and work the system, turn to full lock one way, then the other, holding it for a moment at full lock each time, it will be louder at full lock. It's a bitch to get the air out but it will work out.
Nice numbers, that's got to feel pretty stout!

frankwjr, you do get a prize... One attaboy for you.

Okay so it was a Mustang dyno! He said he uses the Mustang dyno numbers because it is more accurate to what the tires put to the ground. Mustang dyno measured 449whp/414 TQ. He was able to convert it to dyno jet numbers to compare to my last setup and it came to 506whp/480ish torque! So I gained roughly 20whp with the F35 cam
