Still something not right. Should be producing more power then that. As you said on the phone. But least its getting all taken apart and hopefully GMC will get down to the bottom of the problem factor.
Still looking forward to seeing it in the flesh when its done

I would say that power is about right for the spec of that engine. For cammed and bodies vts engine normal it between 150-160 bhp mark.
