Default Being Dynoed

I haven't ever gone before and I am thinking of taking my car to the local dyno to see what it puts down and was curious if there is anything specific that has to be hooked up to the car when it is ran. I don't have their number at the moment so I can't call them to ask. I welded up the o2 sensor bungs so no a/f ratio there. All input is taken from the information given and the power/speed the car spins the drums correct?

Anyone want to guess what they think I will put down in numbers too??
Non roller 306
Gt40 heads
Performer Intake and 600 carb
cam lift in sig, other specs unknown
stock EFI headers with full exhaust otherwise
MSD blaster ignition box and blaster 3 coil
FRPP wires with stock autolite plugs
c4 with stock 2.73's in the rear.

Yes I know, the cam came in the motor and the headers just are not an expense that I can take. They work well enough for me at the moment.

OOOO I want to soooo bad but I can't even take off from a stop light with any kind of throttle without spinning that pizzacutter of a tire that I have (195/70) so it would be pointless. And I don't know anyone around here that would let me borrow their wheels for a few runs and those that would all have new mustangs and 5 lug is not an optioon. Unless I steal the rearend from my wifes 98 for a little while and have 4 lug in the front and 5 in the rear. I have thought about that alot but she would kill me lol.
