It's pretty accurate, it's always a little optimistic because it assumes perfect AF ratio and timing. And I need to find my cam card to find the intake/ exhaust valve opening/ closing degree points to get it closer. The more info you have the better. Which is why it probably wouldn't work for you. Unless your heads are listed in the program (and stock LS1, much less ported LS1 heads are not) you need to know the flow rates of the head across the rpm band (and I have that data).

And the peak rpm points are not accurate. Probably because it doesn't take into account the weight of the reciprocating assembly and valve float. So I just go by what the numbers are where I know my engine actually peaks out, at around 6K. And it's much more accurate that way.

I can send it to you if you want...
