Results on engine swap are in!!
For those who were following I just had a 02 crate LS6 dropped in my 01 SS Camaro... mods are SLP LTs, Cutout and lid... NOTHING ELSE!
The verdict?
390.1 RWHP and 358.4 RWTQ! Dyno done with 600 miles on the engine.

So far running GREAT and pulls like crazy!

Wow! That's pretty damn impressive for a stock LS6 engine.
Are you still using the stock '01 tuning, or did you have the PCM recalibrated as well?
Get that thing to the track!

Stock tuning, upped the rev limiter with Hypertech. Im gonna go to the track soon as she clocks 2000 miles! Did I mention GM gave me a warranty with the engine too? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Results on engine swap are in!!
I hate to be the doubter, but I think your numbers are inflated.
I notice the dyno sheet lists a correction factor of 1.07.
You're in AZ where the humidity is low (under 30%) and your sheet shows the temp was only 82.6 degrees when you dynoed. However, it looks like it shows the pressure as being 28.28 (?) which is something normally seen in a Huricane. My guess is that your numbers are 3 - 6% over stated.
Even still, 370 RWHP from a crate motor with headers is awesome.

Re: Results on engine swap are in!!
were at altitude, and it was humid here as it rained the last couple days... his shop is usually pretty dead on. They even stated it should be a little higher than that.

Re: Results on engine swap are in!!
Well, I think the numbers are damn near right on, I witnessed a 2002 Z06 lay down 391 with an ORXP, FIPK, 30 lbs injectors and MAFT tunning only. I had to rub my eyes for a couple seconds in disbelieve!
Good Show! have fun with it!

Re: Results on engine swap are in!!
How does the car sound, does it have a lope to it or sounds just like a Z06. How much does a crate engine cost. I might be interested..

I paid 7K installed (4900 is cost on the engine so I ordered it through my shop) then labor. That price did include some tear down of my old engine though but on the upside includes a full warranty! the stock ECU learned the engine fine and all the stock parts bolted up perfect...

Honestly though im glad I didnt, the car is EXTREMLY fast with tremendous top end, not to mention it makes its presence felt with the cutout open. It does feel faster than my 98 stage 1 head/cam car did although doesnt quite idle like it did!
