Dyno numbers, near stock L98
I dyno'd my 1991 Corvette last week-end. Minimal mods in sig.
251 RWHP/341 RWTQ
Going back to the dyno in a week or so and trying it with some nitrous. Wish me luck!

230 or so is what I see from most rock stock L98's, and mine has full exhasut so 250 seemed pretty reasonable.
Anyway, thanks for the props.

Excuse my ignorance, but I can't tell if you are being sarcastic or not. I kinda thought the numbers were pretty typical.

No times, the track isn't open here in Utah yet. Even if the track was open, any times from our local track are going to sound really slow. The elevation here is about 4500, but the DA is usually over 10k. Stock LS1's struggle to break 14.5 here, so I'd be lucky to turn a 15.3.

Not bad numbers at all. At a 15% loss to the rear wheels thats about 295HP at the crank.
