Default LS1 hp/torque

I've had no luck in search/stickies so I thought I'd check with my forum friends. As far as I know the LS1 is rated at 345 horse at the crank,,,but I can't find the torque rating from the factory.(My main problem is limited computer skills and don't know where to look ) Thanks In advance!!

Up until 2000, the HP/torque was 345/350 and 01-04s had 350/375, although the A4s have 350/360.

You can get tons of info, here:

Beats the heck outta me. Even more interesting is I think the Z28 had less power also with the same engine.

f-body's and vet's dyno almost the same stock for stock. the vet's irs eats up some hp that it gains in the advantage of the true dual exhaust. don't believe all printed material as fact. same motor same tune same everything internaly.
