744 fwhp.

Just finished the 650hp lingenfelter kit except for porting the blower. And added a water meth kit. All done except my LPE heat exchanger and possibly switching to rotofab intake. So, basically what i am saying is that for approx $12000 i took my stock 580 hp ZL1 and made it a 744hp ZL1. Check out my build thread http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...=1#post5732710 and tell me what you think. Especially you experts Im interested in opinions.

fwhp? Did you do more than you said, like turning the engine sideways?

Godsplumber · 12-03-2012, 03:42 PM

Flywheel Horse power. At the engine.

744 is the corrected # at the flywheel. It started stock at 580 and now its 744.

wait, so the car only picked up 8 hp from a pulley swap? what am i missing. the car is a full exhaust car with 2.55 and a 5% lower and is making 532?

Right, thats what i was confused about. Because i was at 511 with just the intake and headers. and then we got 528.8 with the upgrade of exhaust. So yes, only 8hp with the pulley. But, big increase in torque, which was really needed after that Corsa, because the throttle seemed soft and acceleration didnt seem as fast as the set up did before the Corsa. Now it accelerates really fast.

So now, the shop is telling me thats all were going to get because ive run out of air.

How do you get 744 engine horsepower with 536 RWHP?

Because the stock 580 is like 448 rwhp see my stock dyno sheet below for a reference. That is a different dyno then this last one but the numbers are close to the same, not as high as say a dynojet which gives higher rwhp#s , i dont know what the conversion of this dyno to dynojet #s is, but i will be taking it to LPM in Az here to put it on their Dynojet to see.
