I need the correct hp rating ?
I have a 2002 ss camaro most of the blogs i've read indicate i have a 345 hp lsi engine,while the guy i bought it from said it is 350 hp. I'm not trying to squabble over 5 ponies, i just would like to know which is correct.he is the original owner and it did go to slp.thanks.

do you want the correct RATING or the actual output of the motor?
to my knowledge.... no camaro has EVER been rated at 345. the ratings for the ls1 in fbodies were 305 for the early z, 310 for later z, and i believe 320 for the later SS's. The actual output for all of these motors was 350. the ratings were a result of marketing bullcrap.

You can always put it on a dyno, see for yourself what it's actually got.
Automakers screw with hp ratings all the time for lots of reasons, look at the '69 Z/28 for instance. Rated at 290, actually made closer to 360, or 400 with the dual-carb option.

I have read about a few of the 345 hp packages with the center mounted exhaust (like mine.) Who knows, it seems like it's easier to find information on a 67 Camaro than it is on a 4th Gen.
