No, I don't believe so. Isn't that hole for the Idle Air Control (IAC) valve?

this is the dumbest qoute iv ever read.dynoes dont lie.not every drive train uses uses the same amount of power.20% is not acurate.the 305 hp is way underrated do research.

Dynos don't lye?? Dynos don't LYE!!! WTF are you smokin! I've been in this industry a very long time, and there is obviously a ton of stuff you have no idea about. Chassis dynos are one of the most manipulated forms of power measurement on the planet. I don't have enough time to tear you apart as you should be, but for starters How do you figure the 305 hp rating from Chevy is underated? Do you have any clue what a serious FEDERAL offense it is for a car manufacturer to mis lead the public with horse power advertisements? Holly cow you got alot to learn. Pull your head out and try and learn what REAL horse power is, No one has underrated engine output since the 70's! Some manufactures have "cheated" on those dynos that don't lye. Ask Honda how much they had to pay in 2005, when the were sued by the S.A.E. because they used the wrong exhaust system when they rated they h.p. of the Accord! Dipshit. just for fun read this months issue of Popular Hotrodding, there is a great write up in there about the oh-so truthfull chassis dyno's! In case you don't have enough money to buy the current issue, they measured a '99 'vette that had a few small mods, it "dynoed" 273 h.p.!!! AT THE WHEELS!, but wait the engine was rated at 350? WTF! That is almost exactly 20 friggen percent loss, moron.
