400rwhp Bolt on Ls1 - Think I'm almost there
I think I'm gonna try for 400rwhp with stock internals. I did a search and I dont think it has been done yet. I saw a ls2 vette with a Fast intake manifold get it, but not a Ls1.
I am not gonna swap to a Fast intake, but if I did, would it still be stock internal?
The reason I think I'm close is the car is trapping almost 6 mph higher since doing the headers, y pipe, TB, and Crank pulley. I dont have a custom tune on the car other than using the Diablo. Before the mods in the previous 2 sentences, It dynoed 346 rwhp. I'm gonna find out this week what its at now, and maybe with a custom tune I can get close. The last thing I think I'll need are some 1.85 rockers and springs, which I want to do anyway. I have heard 15rwhp from this. If I get the number, I think I'll forgoe a cam swap for atleast another year anyway. Any thoughts?

Did you purchase the car new? If not I would wonder if it has already been opened. Those times and numbers are not common at all for a stock internal, FULL WEIGHT, car. I've got cam only cars that trap that.

I've been here for long time reading & learning every day but in your case there's something strange i'm not saying ya BSing but a 346rwhp completely stock sounds like a damn high besides to achieve 400rwhp with SI even with all possible bolt-ons sounds impossible just my .02 .
Anyway Good luck man .
peace

I dont mean to confuse anyone. It dynoed 345rwhp with catback, SLP mass air meter, Diablo handheld, SLP Lid, free mods. It went 110mph in this configuration.
I have since added the headers, ypipe, crank pulley and TB. Picked up almost 6 mph.
I bought the car with the mods in the first paragraph. I added the mods in the second paragraph.
I spoke with the original owner who told me the car is stock internally.

I don't want to bust your dreams, but I highly doubt you will see 400. With the headers and pulley you will prob see another 25-30. That leaves you 25 hp short of 400, and the FAST over the LS6 isn't going to give you that, especially on a stock cammed car. All that aside, those are some stout numbers with minimal mods. Congrats, you have a freak.

I really doubt you will even get close to 400rwhp, and if you do I bet someone slapped an LS6 cam in there before you bought it.
But all the power to you man, go for it!
Peace,
Craig.

Sorry buddy, but it aint happen'n. I did 344/361 with stock mans., Y-pipe and cats through stock intake, TB, pulley and tune. The only mods I had were lid w/filter, cut-out and free mods. I trapped 113 full weight with a 12.18 in my M6 car with these mods. I have seen SI cars turn 116+ and not make anywhere near 400rwhp. These 01-02 cars do not make a TON off headers since the stack mans flow decent. Same with a 90/90. You will not see much on the dyno on a SI motor with it. Cam only and H/C cars see as much as 20/20 gain, but SI cars see very little.
