A: Its a gen I TBI motor, not a Gen 2 LT.
B: Many combos can get that much more power, as has been proven by hundreds if not thousands of dyno tests over the years that you can look up. Hell, edelbrocks top end package promises that. I'd bet a truck that AFR195's and a roller cam in the 230@.050 range would get 350HP on a stock 350 shortblock.
