It's 170 with TBI from factory. LG4 w/quadrabog was rated between 145-155 from factory. TBI stock was working out to 135hp at rear wheels so that's about right.

if chiltons ever contradicts any information youve found somewhere else, go with the information you found somewhere else. Chiltons is full of errors
