Elesha Walker's 2002 WS6 Pontiac Ram Air Trans Am and the superb quality and knowledgeable services of Speed Engineering has broken the worlds record for rear wheel horsepower with out any power additives or internal engine modifications to the stock LS1.
400.7 rwhp/401.6 rwtq SAE corrected without heads and cam, and without power adders! That's right, a totally stock long block LS1 engine making the same power and more torque than a lot of heads/cam cars have.

I can believe it.. I remember talking to an NMRA guy that dominated a stock class by buying literally 25 sets of stock pistons, rods, cams, a dozen blocks, 50 sets of bearings.. .. ect. an basically taking a micrometer, precison scale, and calipers and blueprinting every square inch of each part to build 2 perfect tolerance engines to make maximum power.

yes it does.
yes it does.
please correct me if im wrong but dosnt sae corrected just mean that the power was corrected to the exact temps, pressures, and elevation to stay in the same peramitors of the factory. i never heard it meaning only to the wheels. and also i never heard of a car factory rating anything to the wheels.

i bet they have full bolt-ons... some of the wording is vague and they don't have a list of mods or anything done to it. The link doesn't even work....i call BS on it being Completely stock
