If the 370 number is measured "on the dyno with open headers" then yes that is a bit low. If I'm remembering correctly, Sal's CSX 4241 is one of my all time favorite cars on here and he had a 390 in it. If that 370 number is measured with the sidepipes bolted up to the exhaust and with the water pump being driven, then you might just want to go with it and see how often you're honestly saying to yourself "I'm at WOT and this anemic mill just ain't doing it for me." You do know that when most of us talk about our speed, power, torque, horses, etc. we're basically just full of shi*.
