If a stock LS7 is 505hp/470lb.ft., I'm going to make a totally unscientific guess and say this Camaro is putting out around 615hp and 585lb.ft. at the crank.  Subtract 15% for drivetrain loss, and that puts my guess at 523hp/497lb.ft at the wheels.  I could be way off base, however.

We Have A Winner!

HP was 509.63 and peak torque was 460.9 lb.ft.   The winner is... complicated!

First off, ZeGerman had the closest HP guess: (The parentheses show how far off he was from the actuals)


ZeGerman: 523 HP 497 TQ   (-13.37 HP -36.1 TQ)

But Nick 502 had the closest TQ guess:

Nick502: 466 HP   436 TQ (43.63 HP 24.9 TQ)

But Wayne Mendoza was closest on BOTH, which was the requirement...

Wayne Mendoza: 525 HP 487 TQ (-15.37 HP -26.1 TQ)

So congrats Wayne!

You can watch the complete dyno run with the HP and Torque numbers below.    Thanks to Finish Line Performance, MagnaFlow, ARP, and www.v8tvshow.com for the prizes, and thanks to all for playing!    We'll have another contest starting very soon!

Here's the video:
