Re: how to get 400hp
327 / 345 would be rear-wheel horsepower 
. Yes, welcome to the wonderful world of the Under-rated LS1 
. If you believe the sticker that says ~310 HP for a base Z28, ~325/335 HP for the SS, ok . Just keep telling your former Mustang buddies that's all the engine makes too, then leave them scratching their heads when you dyno ~320+ RWHP 
.
Now with an auto, you will see less at the wheels, but the engine itself is still making the same ~350 flywheel HP as its M6 (manual 6-speed) counterpart, it just suffers an extra few % drivetrain loss. For example, my car dyno'd ~290 RWHP with the A4, but now put ~317 RWHP with the M6!
(big difference, I know!?
