hey....it's your story......but I assure you....the C-6's are way under rated! Dont know what kind of dyno you're talking about but I can show you some here that get way better numbers....I would bet you any amount of money on that one and I'm not a gambeling man unless I know 100 percent that I'm gonna win.

Pewter- 2001 Camaro Z28 M6
its not really a measure of being underrated or overrated.
Its a change in marketing, with 4thgen f-bods GM posted RWHP, with new cars they post crank HP. Which is fine because the general masses dont know the difference!

its hard to bs guys that have been here a long time and have raced almost every thing out there. the fact is the story is just that, a story and you have to make your best call. fact or fiction. the best way to prove your story is true................GET IT ON TAPE.

Pewter- '99 Z28 M6
I can believe it. I put 3 car lengths on an LS2 GTO at the end of the eighth. He trapped 92 mph too! Left his ass, and I only got 404 whp, vs. the 05 GTO's what, like 360 whp stock?
And spun through second...Heads 'n Cammed, Moser 12, 3.73's, Weight Reduction, 13" Brembo Kit
BMR track suspension, full exhaust, the works...
412whp/394wtq 1/4 mile slip coming soon!
Gone: '01 Laser Red Cobra 3.73's/Full Bolt-ons

My Uncle Has A Bone Stock C6 Automatic---with All Bolt Ons I Would Give Him A Slow Walk In Each Gear...never To End Up At More Than A Car Length Ahead---i Can Believe You Beat Him ....and He Probly Gave Up When He Figured This Out, Thus Giving The Hella Car Length Idea......

almost all high performance engines are underrated..the LSx line is no exception..as stated its insurance reasons..but gas guzzler has nothing to do with hp or tq rating..its mpg...the only reason why ls2s acheive that is the skip shift and i believe the cylinder shutoff..i cant remember if the c6's ls2 has that...but yea its deff an insurance issue...GM and ford have been doing it for YEARS!! also i heard that the ls1 wasnt actually underrated..it was a change of engine messurments ..they moved from rwhp to crank hp...but i've only heard one person say that so i'm not sure if its true.
