This is not a good topic because this is a simple question thats been asked to many times before.
If you checked out the stickies at the top you could answer your own question.
Since you asked already: 93-97 had LT1 motors rated at 275 hp. 98-02 had LS1 motors. The 98-00's are slightly less powerful than the 01 and 02's because the later models received an LS6 intake.

the fastest Fbody car is the 99 Formula WS6 with 6spd. No power anything no leather and maybe no air depending. 13.10 in the 1/4. I havent read into if GM went away from the formula having no power anything in 00-02 models. but none the less a base model formula with the ws6 slp package is the fastest.
