I don't think I've ever seen a Z done in 5th. To many people say the car will max out untuned or something or they didn't want the rollers going that fast. It should be 5th though and you are correct it will read higher. I think most do 4th though so at least the majority can compare numbers.

So would maximum brake hp be just shy of 400?

I just want to be a hair faster than my neighbors L46 stroker, the I could sleep at night >: >(

this subject will never die since anyone can change any of multiple variables to putup big numbers. every dyno is different and some people may even skew their numbers for an array of reasons.

like mike even said different wheels will change it. if someone wanted to make higher numbers just wait for ideal conditions, lighter wheels, manipulate the loads and variables in the dyno software, etc... and bam! high HP numbers.

Not if you know how tuning works and you sit next to the tuner as he adjusts on the rollers.

That's what I do, by moving the decimal point.

My Z makes 3165 hp. Not bad for NA. It runs a 1.27 sec quarter mile (I move that decimal point too, just the other way).

Nobody else got numbers that high with their headers. Z1 makes good stuff, but they seem to have a very "marketing-friendly" dyno.

Yep. Never trust the guy who sells the parts to tell you how much power it makes. They've got a vested interest in making that number look as good as possible. I'm sure that the Z1 parts make more power than stock or other options. I seriously doubt that it's as high as they claim.

i mean headers and plenum added to mine i would love to break 340.....just 20WHP addition with just those seem tough.

That was not on a different dyno. It was on the same dyno during a dyno day at Znationals.
