where did you find 305 hp at the wheels and not the crank?....and it sure the hell isn't 350 hp at the wheels. GM didn't give a fuck about insurance rates, they always want to show more power, hence why they dropped an ls1 in it. if you honestly think they would drop hp numbers in a "sporty" camaro, think again idiot
The LS1's made ~350hp at the crank.
GM under rated the LS1 in F-body's (camaro/firebird) to keep the vette owners from getting mad.
If you bought a brand new C5 vette and the $25k camaro beside it is actually putting down MORE power because it doesn't have IRS your going to be mad. Just remember. An LS1 is an LS1 is an LS1. 2001 and 2002 LS1 F body's got the LS6 intake and slightly smaller cam. The LS1 vettes did not have EGR. They make the same power.
This is my car:
99 Pontiac Firebird Formula.
Stock bottom end LS1
Patriot Performance Stage II LS6 heads
Yella Terra Ultra light roller rockers
TTP Equalizer V3 cam
Spec 3+ clutch
Fidanza aluminum Flywheel
LS6 intake
LT headers/duals/dumped bullets
