Default 375 Rwhp

I'm looking into buying an LSX for my 70 camaro and I wanted to get between 350-375 RWHP. Now if I bought a bone stock 01 or newer LS1, what would I need to do to it to reach my goal? Is there a way to get there without swapping heads? Thanks!

You'd have no problem hitting that with just bolt ons and a cam.

With a good size cam and full boltons ,350-375rwhp will be easily attainable through stock 241 heads even through a built auto. Just make sure the cam is bigger than a 224/224.

I made 390 at the wheels with a TR230/224 cam and stock heads. So I say Yes.

Well what I'm planning on doing is buying an 01 or newer LS1, sticking it in my 70 camaro with headers and a cam right now. What cam would give me good power from 2000-6500 and also have a mean idle?

For the exhaust, I don't need any emissions, so that should help me out some. I plan on swapping heads, but at a later date.

With just a cam and headers, what would I be pushing out?

Yeah. I got ported TB, lid, LTs, ORY, and magnaflow catback. Also the TB bypass.

I touched 365rwhp. My second run of 351rwhp 352rwtq is more accurate though.

Yes. Stock manifolds have never been off the car either.

I think he might have dyno'd the car on a tread-mill.

I'm only making 371rwhp with full boltons and a 230+ cam.

I am at 370 on a **** setup.

Here it is for power boltons and my cam:

Texas Speed Performance Lid and SLP Smooth Bellows
Shaner S2 Throttle Body
SLP 160 Thermostat
ThrottleBody Bypass Mod
Mac Midlength Headers
Mac Y pipe with Random Tech Cats
GMMG Catback
4.10 gears
230/232 .595/.595 112 LSA FM13 cam
East Side Performance Tune (bad idle sensor/ 18 inch heavy *** rims/ no 3rd gear and codes being thrown for my messed up 6 speed transmission.

I dynoed 370 rwhp and 351 rwtq

I have since switched to QTP Long Tubes... 2.5 inch true dual mandrel bent exhaust with 4 magnaflow bullets. Also have added ASP underdrive pulley. I am hoping to be in the 400 mark now.

Wish you the best.. but 380 is EASILY ACHIEVABLE if you have the means of cash
