stock LS1 RWHP?

Anyone know what the avg. stock LS1 puts to the wheels for HP and TQ? Do the SS and WS6 models differ from the Z28 and Trans Am?

98-00 usually 285-300
01-02 a little more so usually around 290-310

there really isn't much difference in the SS/WS6 and the standard V8 models on a dyno since the ram air setups don't do much untill at 100+mph, and the exhaust really isn't that much better

01-02 dyno a bit higher due to ls6 intake

I'd say 300rwhp is a safe medium for your average non SS/WS6 LS1's. Most (not all) SS/WS6's dyno a few more HP. It can be attributed to the better flowing exhaust and intake, if that option was ordered as well

300~ish HP. There are high and low exceptions (280's - 320's).

FWIW, my '02 Z28 made 289 RWHP, 307 RWTQ through the A4 w/4.10's. Only power adder is a lid (I doubt the Flowmaster adds much HP? ).

Just as a note, do not even consider the factory rating of 305/310 HP as being even close to accurate.....and they didn't intend for it to be a rear-wheel rating! The later model SS's / WS6's with the lid and cat-back were actually rated 335/345 HP, which is a much closer rating (still less than the 'Vette, but it's almost accurate). The LS1 engine makes roughly ~350 HP, give or a take a couple obviously.....figure ~15% drivetrain loss on average, that comes out to 298 RWHP, so ~300 RWHP is a good "ball-park", and ~350 crank HP is certainly accurate too.
