95 LTI Camaro

Just to show I am not all political, I need some advice something me and Bob never ask for, kind of figure it out as we go.

We have always run SBC’s with carburetors, 67 D/S 302 Camaro, 68 350/295 F/S Camaros, always built our cars and Engines, Last year we bought a 95 Camaro LT1 car with 2 pedals ouch, from Div 1 had a good history, and the price was right, and we just did not have the time or energy to build one from scratch. Were happy with it but it was a dog from the beginning, supposedly had a fresh motor. Bought it in February so had to take the sellers word on it, and the 2 day drive didn't think of doing a leak test on it. Car run 3 under in the spring at Topeka using the tune that came with it, knew we had a problem, tried some stuff and picked up just a little. Bob had enough, so we pulled the Engine and built a new motor, tore it down it had .012 piston to wall, and a couple of valves were leaking, bought a set of not so cheap heads from one of the best Stock head guys, CP Pistons, the latest Total Seal Ring Package, Comp solid Rollers, Comp Lifters, picked up a couple more with the same tune on it, but we know there is more in it. My question is if we take it to a hub Dyno, Patterson’s guy in Wichita, what can we expect to see as far as performance from a good tune. We are currently running closed loop, Alpha N Mode, think it would be faster in in open loop Speed Density Mode. The ECU is a FAST 2.0 Thoughts/Advice. I am a I&E guy and can get into a Process PLC and set High Alarm and High High shut downs, and no some programming but this stuff is wearing me out.

Thanks
