I hope so because if not then this question is ridiculously open-ended.

A few have broken the 500rwhp mark. Cartek, ECS, Vengeance. Cartek went mid 10s in a Vette and low 10s in TA. Not sure on the others times.

If we are talking about stock displacement ls1/6's then I don't think any have cracked the 525rwhp mark and 475rwtq mark and that is being generous (probably more like 450rwtq. As for times at the track, TSP set the record for a tock displacement LS1 at the LSX shootout this year, they ran a 9.8x if im not mistaken. Now keep in mind this car was completely gutted and weighed 2,800 or 2,900lbs they still got in the 9's regardless. Also Robz got in the 9's with his (claimed) stock displacement n/a ls6. There is some controversy surrounding whether he did this n/a or not but according to him it was done completely n/a.

Chris, be advised. I'm currently finishing up the install of a surplus F 16 engine.

My highest corrected dyno numbers were 467rwhp on a mustang dyno which converts to around 525-530rwhp dynojet.
I have backed up these numbers on the strip.

The best numbers I've seen have seen with no tricks have come from great aftermarket heads. Trick flow heads, ETP, and AFR.
