I didn't post anything yet because it wasn't running 100% on the dyno. The car was running lean over 4000rpms and even with playing with the tune on the dyno, nothing was helping. Either the fuel pump couldn't keep up or the MAF is going bad, but I'll be doing a proper diagnosis this weekend and hopefully I'll get it back on the dyno before it heads out to Archie next weekend.
It generated 330whp and 348 ft lbs. I expected 360whp and it should be good for it.

LQ4 MAF and Corvette Fuel Pump (ep-376)?
Was the Dyno tested with 93 octane gas, stock timing?
I did not hear any SC whine although the exhaust sounded damn good.

It is using 93 octane. The timing is not stock. N* throttle body with LQ4 MAF, I have the correct MAF table and the car is running a 3.0" pulley. There is plenty of blower whine...lol. In the video, the exhaust overpowers it a bit

It's still a 200% improvement over the original swap.

Does it have any KR? I read bad reviews on the Short Stack IC, maybe that is your bottleneck? You may need to drop to a 2.8 to make the 360hp mark, but I am not sure if the SS IC can keep KR at bay at that power level?

Yes, I have checked for KR. It is not experiencing any. I datalogged the dyno runs as well for me to review. Like I said before, I'll be diagnosing it this weekend. The intercooler is working great....I've been playing around with the SSIC on my gold GT and I have mine cooling better than a full size IC by making some slight adjustments to the way it works. I also have a plan put together using Mercedes Benz technology to help cool the fuel and intercooler while still maintaining serious power.

Widebody kit and hood. Who better to install Archie's kit than Archie?

Having it painted locally after Archie is done with it. I'm going to add these decals.
For the front fenders...

Door jams and engine bay...
