just got back from the dyno a little bit ago with some pretty good numbers. car is a 2008 manual trans, z51, standard exhaust; bone stock down to the paper filter. coolant was running about 215 so it might have picked up 5HP if we let it cool off.
best run: 389 hp, 376 ftlbs
these are SAE corrected, dynojet
I'm impressed, bring on the mods

Those are good numbers. Vette Magazine ran some numbers a bit higher with the air cleaner element removed from the car.
You can put a 160 degree thermostat in your C6 for about $20. that will put another 6-7 hp at the rear wheels. The reason your Vette runs at 210-215 degrees is to help the car pass emissions and it makes more power with the lower temp thermostat. It's a very inexpensive mod that's easy to install.
