Is this right?HP per ci Going off my dyno results-
Calculating flywheel horsepower.
I had 364.5 RWHP/ 379.4 RWTQ
calculating @ 15% drivetrain loss (M6)
429x15%=64.35 ...429-64.35=364.65rwhp
446x15%=66.90.....446-66.90=379.10 rwtq
So at 429 (divided by 346)Flywheel hp that's
1.23 hp per cubic inch?
446( divided by 346) Flywheel Torque that's
1.28 ft/tq per cubic inch?
Did I figure this right?
If so, not bad for a stock LS-1 motor. <img src="gr_eek2.gif" border="0">

Re: Is this right?HP per ci Yeah - those numbers are right. Awesome engine, isn't it!! Driveline loss is debatable - I have seen people use anywhere from 10-18% for an M6, with 13-15% being common.
By the way, your motor is not "stock," it is "stock internals" and/or "stock with bolt-ons." We all know what you mean, but I want to cover your back in case a ricer saw that and tried to use it as ammo <img src="gr_tounge.gif" border="0">
