no dyno numbers, but at the track my lid-only '02 ran a 13.1 @ 110mph. with nitto drag radials it ran a 12.8 with a crappy 2.0 60' time. i'm guessing that it puts down some pretty good HP numbers.

good luck, you won't be disappointed!!!

Advertised numbers (though many will say they are under rated by GM):
325 HP
350 Torque

A guy at shop with dyno said he dyno'd a 2002 Camaro SS and rear wheel HP was 308, which puts "rated" flywheel HP at 330+ or so. A WS6 should be similar.

Im not calling BS on this but I would say that those times would be on the faster side and not the average. It also depends on transmission, track prep and location of the track. But as he said you wont be disappointed at all.
