HP and Torque specs on 85Z

I have an 85 z28 305 that I am going to drop into a firebird, but I wanted to know what they have HP and Ft.lbs-wise. It has the computer controlled carb on it if that helps.

Thanks,

Chris

there were two 305 carbed motors that year one had 165 hp and the other 190 hp. I don't know the torque on them. Do you have the car it came out of still? If so we could decode the VIN and see which one it had.

I WOULD RATHER PUSH A CAMARO THAN DRIVE AN IMPORT

1983Z28 350w/ edelbrock performer RPM power package with 64cc aluminum heads, dynomax shorty headers, 700R-4 with shift kit, 750cfm carb, edelbrock 3" exhaust system, ASCD SS hood, 16" IROC rims.

future mods:

The LG4's torque was 245 ft/lbs at 2000 rpm and the L69's torque was 240 ft/lbs at 3200. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the 1985 Lg4 rated at 155 hp in the Camaro and 165 hp in the Caprice and Impala?
