Default 95 Police Interceptor. How much HP?

Like I said, I just want to see how much power they have. I am bitching with a guy from work. I say it has 265-295, no more. He thinks its 380. Please help me!!!

Are you talking about a 95 LT1 B4C car? If so, they dont have any more HP than a regular LT1.

If he has a HIGH mile '95 with the Lt1 I'd say he's got 215 at the crank and 187 at the wheels. Hauling 4,300 pounds of car =

Damn dude...I don't think '95 LT1 dynoed that low. That's like a '95 Mustang GT numbers.

I guess 260. I had a 96 T/A LT1; I don't think the 95 LT1 was much different.

I'm basing those numbers on a 10 years old cop car with the hell beat out of it. Failing opti, so on..... 215 hp- beleive it.

Well, you can't just assume it has those numbers though. Regardless, I'm sure those cop cars were taking great care of with regular maintenace being done to those engines.

260hp with a higher torque rating that the f-body version. Other than a higher amp alt and better cooling, theres nothing different. Now thats a chevy. As far as I'm aware the only vehicle actually called a "Police Intereptor" by a mfg, is the Ford Crown Vic, which is something like 215 hp. Chevy just went with the "Police Package" naming... but since your on a Gm site, you're probably talking about the caprice anyway.

later,

The cops around me said they run their cars dead. The cars are given just enough maintainance to make it to around 80000 miles, then they strip them and auction them.

That is correct, Illinois State Police even run them to about anywhere from 65,000-115,000 miles and they arent eays on them either....the most of them jsut got replaced-some even have forced induction systems set-up on them so be careful

North Carolina has 100 LS1 Camaros modified to 380hp.

South Carolina uses mostly unmarked and MANY varied colored LS1 Camaros, as well. Compeltely unmarked and if I remember correctly, lights fold down from the ceiling into the windshield. Nothing is visible at all. I've seen black, white, maroon, green, silver, and red on I-95 and I-22 heading from NC to Charleston, SC.

Just a side note I thought it was cool, when I was with my friend down in SC this past weekend picking up my car, we saw a TON of B4C police cars. There was one that had an aftermarket billet grill and some different wheels. Just had the badging of the local police on the side. We thought it was neat, up here in NJ we got boring stuff.
