If that stock LT1 can dyno 350HP I will give him triple his buy it now price and if it does not I get it free. That should be the offer.

Bet you he did:
Q: there were no 350HP version's of the LT1.. The motor itself has the capability of 350hp w/ a good set of headers and intake.. but in the form you are selling it.. is only 290hp or so...
A: You are correct and as I've pointed out to anyone who has emailed me on that, it is a 285hp motor - not 350hp.

Im suprised nobody mentioned the 69/70 lt1 that made 350hp. That is probably where the 350hp idea came from. 96 backward is 69 so seller could have made a typo when researching the lt1 motor.

Re: 96' LT1 Aluminum Heads: 350 HP, Is it hype?
I'm looking for some information on the stock aluminum heads that was supposed to be an option for the 96' LT1 engine, head casting number that should be for this motor is:# 12551561. Is this really a 350 HP engine, as it's claimed? If it is, what would the code # for these heads be, that is part of the code options listed with each vehicle? As I'm a novice, any help here would be highly appreciated.

F-Body LT1:
- 93-95 = 275 HP
- 96-97 = 285 HP (allegedly due to dual cats in place of single cat)
See 1996 Camaro sales brochure:
