Decided not to.. why would I? I beat a 850+rwhp vette that called me out in my thread... I put my car where my mouth is.. what more do you want? Sorry I do not have a DP dyno sheet for you..

Ran strong and made good power in NA form, and ran great with the blower too. Most great NA cams work very well with a centri blower.

The 117 LSA is bleeding off some DCR at lower speeds, but that's not why he is down 70+ lb/ft. Something else is wrong....
Had it retuned today at another tuner in the area. He stated the tune was wayyyyyy off. The car runs great and smooth now. 573rwhp with 500 rwtq. On dynojet. I'm pretty pleased. A different cam would help me get better numbers but I'm happy for now!!

Absolutely....Different cam would = more dollars gone. If you like how it drives, the numbers don't really matter. ENJOY!

That's a big difference. Good for you getting a different opinion before tearing into the motor.
