It was tons of fun hanging out with everyone! I'll just be over here saving all the pictures with my car in them.
I put down 270HP/320TQ. Rock solid AF ratio and consistent within 2hp every run. Yay Megasquirt!
I will get new heads and I will break pretty deep into the 300hp level at next year's dyno! (Knock on wood...) _________________ 84 Camaro Z28 - LS1/T56

My 5.3 put down a max of 283hp/316tq with a solid AFR. I haven't seen consistent AFR in this car since it was stock. Now it's time for boost. |

Mmmhmm
ZZPerformance put down 400whp on a measly 12 psi non intercooled. No mods to the motor whatsoever. _________________ 1998 Grand Prix GT | 12.91 @ 103 - Sold/Retired

Is it 15% hp loss through the drive train? If so you're making about 1 hp per cube!
@ 15% loss to the wheels Ian's 5.3 puts out ~325hp & ~363tq at the crank! Nice!
What RPM was the peak hp and tq at? _________________ '86 Trans Am - 5.0L TPI - LT1 cam - 700R4 - WS6

More like ~333hp / ~372 ft lbs but ya, nice! What was that engine rated at from the factory... like 290hp? I would say they underrated a tad.

Wikipedia says the highest power iron block 5.3 was worth 295hp/335tq.
Seems a bit underrated to me.  _________________ 84 Camaro Z28 - LS1/T56
