stock LS1 RWHP?
Re: stock LS1 RWHP?
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

Re: stock LS1 RWHP?
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
Re: stock LS1 RWHP?
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
