He's up around 60-70rwkw from stock with only exhaust, intake and tune. That's not bad for an N/A engine. He hasn't even done cam and heads. Not bad if you ask me.

That flattening off at the top I seem to see alot in the big V8's.. In a perfect world they should keep climbing as the revs go up.. Unless I'm mistaken..

But I guess the big question to the OP is.. What's the reading on the pants dyno like? Enjoying the improvement?

Apparently these LS3's suffer a bit from valve float at high RPM

What's with the wavy torque line? A N/A setup should be quite linear.

Valve springs are good security if you get a cam installed.. But I wouldn't think you'd need to open it up for new springs otherwise..

Thought the same thing.

I also WTF'd at the 16rwkw power gain. You should be looking at least a 50-70rwkw gain with full exahust, OTR and tune. Provided you didn't go overkill on the exhaust setup

The car didn't make 270rwkw in stock form. Would have made more like 230rwkw.

230rwkw? Thats about 87kw in drivetrain loss....
