That's a big jump for just an LT swap. Was that na or on nitrous? I know guys with stage 3 heads and Cams running 14+ psi that didn't see that much of an improvement. I'd take that power and run. As the commercials say....results not typical.

Well what is important is not peak numbers as much as power under the curve. So if the midrange is benefitted, then i dont see a problem with footing the bill.

That was with the nitrous. The before and after numbers were done on the same dyno too, so i'm not complaining at all lol.
