What dyno machine is this on? #'s are going to fluctuate a lot depending on which dyno.

What was the a/f ratio? I'd like to see how conservative the stock tune is.

aftermarket intake will open things up for sure. The stock intake is much more restrictive than the LS1 ever was. The LS1 engines dyno'd about 290 or 300 to the rears as stock, I'd think the LS3 would do much better considering it has better heads and substantially more displacement.

great looking car. It's gonna be very responsive to performance parts to make up for the weight. I'd like to hear it with no cats and a T-rex type cam..

I'd like to see a bone stock one with a little tuning and a few miles under it's belt. Not bad, but I expected a little more.

The number may sound low, but different dynos spit out different numbers. What we do know, is that the cars are trapping 111-112 mph so they aren't low on power.
