Silly question perhaps, but what is the rwhp rating on a stock 2000 C5? I know they advertise I believe 345 hp but I think that is at the flywheel. Just curious. I also have heard that you loose plus/minus 18% from the flywheel to the rear wheels. Does that sound about right?

If a 6-speed, figure about 15% less than the 345. If an automatic, figure about 18% less.
