I'm just throwing you out "numbers" based on what GM "says." Ive been around way long enough to know that most every manufacturer under rates theri products in the name of "all that is holy."

Until I see actual DYNO sheets from guys that are stock, those numbers are pretty close to real Son.

No shame in them since we all "know" our cars are much faster than the other "275 BHP" cars.

I thought this thread wanted "stock f-car lt1 rwhp numbers"

Why do you people keep on posting dynos of your car after it's been modded??

Another question is wether you guys giving estimates are referencing it to a Dynojet or a Mustang dyno setup. Makes a big difference

I'm tempted to delete all the "not stock, but here's my numbers"...... just clouds the answer to the original question, which was STOCK.

I wish this wasn't necessary. But, I believe it may be. The posts I would consider off-topic.

Not just some random dudes liking to brag about what their "stock" motor ran on brand X Dyno. Sounds more like a bunch of Jotos posting just to hear themselves.

At least I had some statistics that were relevant,
