I found this on another site.
It was in a doc dated Jan 09 V.5. Is this offical or did someone alter a real doc? I download the whole doc but it is to big to post all of it here.
Compression ratio: 11.3:1 10.7:1 Horsepower (hp/kW @ rpm): 304/227 @ 6400 rpm 426/318 @ 5900 (LS3) 400/298 @ 5900 (L99) |

You're information is coming from the Jan 2009 Camaro Specifications document from Chevrolet. And yes, it's Version 5.
What's your question?

The hp says 426 at 5900 rpm for the LS3. I had seen 422 at 5000 rpm in the oct 08 specs. Just thought it was strange. I know the 426 hp beats the Challenger by 1 hp but not sure what Dodge is using for rpm.

Oh yup the 426 hp was confirmed a few weeks ago in the latest IDL (where the news was lost in the chaos resulting in the 1 month pushback on the start of production). Apparently SAE certification netted an additional 4 hp and I'm sure it had nothing to do with beating the SRT8...

Go back and look at the Oct 2008 V.4 and I think it lists the hp data at 5000 rpm instead of the new 5900 in the V.5 doc.
