If you call 5.0's ricer than we must also include LT1's, 3rd gens, Cheaper LS1's and anything else that can be had for about 6k or less. All these cars are the prized possessions of the 16-20yr. old crowd....and yes many of them are ricers.

Maybe 10-15 flywheel hp, unless using ricer math. Go see how many stock 5.0's are making 215rwhp with the only mods being a short belt and gheto ram. If your mod math is correct this would have to be the case. Go ahead and check, then get back to me.

QUOTE: Bypassing the smog pump is worth loads on these cars. I would say 25 is EASY w/ short belt, (11hp on dyno) and home made ram air with pulley's would net an easy 25 rwhp.
Just found a dyno someone posted on the corral out of some 5.0l performance book and they gained 5rwhp/5ft.lbs at peak with a shortbelt on a stock 5.0. Wish I knew how to post the link, but I don't.

I'd say with pullies, ram air, short belt, no silencer and bumped timing.....you MIGHT get 20-25rwhp if the tune is spot on. With just a shortbelt noway.

who cares if they make 25whp they still are in stock cobalt ss range 
but most of the 5.slows around here arent too cocky, if they are i dont care most arent fast and then one or two are bad ***

QUOTE: 11 rwhp for a short belt. I know for a fact. I didnt say they would make 215 rwhp, but it should pick up 20-25 easy with those mods
You didn't say it, you inferred it. If a stock 5.0 dyno's 190rwhp and you add 25rwhp, that= 215rwhp. 190 + 25= 215. So yes if your shortbelt gains are accurate, a stock 5.0 with a shortbelt would have to dyno 215rwhp.

98Supersport...I wouldn't downplay 5.0's too much with a 13.532(not that it's a bad time!)....A gear, exhaust, free mods, drag radial car will be nippin at your heels.

You have lowered your idea of stock 5.0 dyno #'s from previous posts in this forum, and have increased the amount of mods needed to reach your 25 rwhp. You keep changing things. Your 1st post said gheto ramair, mobil1 and short belt=25rwhp. This would make 215 ish rwhp from your previous idea of stock 5.0 dyno #'s. And yes, stock 5.0's dyno from 180-190rwhp.
