Hello Dino. You are correct. They were 345 until 2000 and 350 from 2000 on.

I believe due to the addition of the LS6 Intake.

Keep in mind that this is BHP at the flywheel not RWHP.

Check this out:

As a reference, I've seen a bunch of Vettes dyno'd at all the Dallas shops. A bone stock '97 auto will do about 285-290. A bone stock MN6 will do 10-15 more. A bone stock Z06 will do about 352.

By the way, it's not the HP increase that is significant, it's the torque increase (especially for MN6 tranny C5s) It went from 350 in 2000 to 375 lbs-ft in 2001. That's a nice chunk of torque. My C5's torque is up at 400 lbs-ft, thanks to an intake and exhaust combo.
