There is no way to determine RWHP..All cars are different...It's been a while, I think the factory hp was rated at 325-330 FLYWHEEL HP for the LS1 Ram Air.

I'd say it's safe to assume about 300 RWHP. It varies though from car to car. Some dyno in the 290s, others nearly 320 or more. Dynos though are at best a ballpark range of power your car makes anyway. You could dyno 310 one day and 305 (or 315) the day after.

I had a stock 2002 Camaro SS w/ A4 dyno 306/318, with 91 octane gas and the stock paper filter.
