Mark,
Did you take into account the thickness of the head gasket? There are some thicker gaskets out there.....

Are you running the same ratio rocker? 1.6

Also as far as your baseline #'s. Are they SAE corrected or not? And if not you have to take into account humidity, temperature, altitude etc. in order to be able to compare to anything else in the country or even dynoing on a different day. Some tuners also like to change the correction factor to a high # to make you feel better, so watch out for that when people post results. See it all the time...

Properly tuned FMS392 should do 350-360 RWHP in a BDR with a TKO5/600. What was or is your total timing? Dont worry about baseline.
Also get your A/F to about a 12.8 average at WOT with a N/A motor.
There was easily 40 hp in tuning in that car in my guestimation.....
