BTW, the 364 rwhp we saw before was on a DynoJet and was corrected to SAE. This dyno run seems as if it wasn't (probably STD) but even if it were corrected to SAE, it is not directly comparable to dyno runs that are typically seen on the net (DynoJet).


Also, another note. The LS3 is not underrated, its SAE Certified, it can't be underrated. It must make within +-1% of its rated power.
Do you have the SAE spec that says that? I hear that alot (it can't be underrated) but nobody can show where it says that it has to be that close. It is not that I think it is overrated, I would just like to see the spec.
