sounds like that dyno needs a recalibration...321 RWHP would mean that your car was putting out something close to 370 FWHP....highly doubt it when the same motor in corvettes was rated at 345 FWHP from GM, and, no GM didn't under rate vettes, they only under rated fbodies.

The dyno was correct. It was a brand new dynojet @ revxtreme. I am not a newbie, I have been racing for along time and im not trying to feed you bs.... I have seen a few firehawks hit in the 330rw stock. Remember they have lids and catbacks from slp which usually nets 10 more rw

well perhaps since you car was an SS and M6, and I can see M6 f-hawks possbily going close to 330, but i can also vouch for seeing a new 98 auto putting down 269 rwhp, and i've read from GMHTP others between 270 and 290.

It really depends on the altitude and humidity plays a big factor too. A good estimate would be if my ss was auto it would probably have put down around 304 ish. The m6 has alot less drivetrain loss

all I can say is that I'll never let another man touch my rearend ever again. The first guy that did my rear really messed things up. It was tight for a while, then it felt really loose.... he acted like it was myfault things went bad. Be careful ... unless it's a true friend or a relative.... I would be weary.
Man I'm so good at editing out quotes I should work for the tabloids.

Sometimes, you really have to exercise self-control to refrain from commenting on some of the threads. Other times, it's down right impossible to ignore them--as was the case with this one. Then again, maybe the originator of the thread knows exactly what he/she is saying-----I wonder.
