Using this:
http://www.dragtimes.com/horsepower-...lculate+Torque
and entering it at 5000 rpms (I inputed 313hp and kept playing with the RPM's untill it equaled J. Brown's 330lbs.) I got a flywheel torque rating of:
362.39 lb-ft
SO, I would put 360 lb-ft on the plaque and call it a day
If you want more accurate go to a friggin dyno....

I just read someone who said it was 345hp/345tq but that makes no sense...
Actually, this post should have been moved here:

...a long time ago. Those guys will know, they drive the cars.

I looked it up, it produced 340 lb-ft of torque add 20 lb-ft and it brings you to the previously mentioned rating of:
360 lb-ft
So there you go .

Cliff note:
I want an accurate (Not 350 to 360ish) depiction of the factory SLP ratings for an appearance mod without having to spend $50+ for a dyno in addition to the $40 plaque.

aren't all the base LS1s rated 340-350 at the flywheel? GM just said that the LS1 F-bodies had less power so that they wouldn't **** off loyal vette owners that only know HP numbers and nothing else.

No some cars had extra SLP options that increased the power. Stock SS and WS6 cars are rated at 325hp. Some cars had the upgraded SLP exhaust and Blackwing airbox lid and which were 10hp each. Therefore some cars with both like mine were rated at 345hp.
