Default First Camaro!!!! Have question, please help

Alright, so I just sold my Lincoln LS and bought a 1994 z28 camaro with a 1996 lt1 350 lt1 camaro engine.

The guy I bought the car from worked at NAPA and put a lot into this car. I was just wondering if ya'll could help me estimate how much horsepower it has with all the add-ons. I know it has 285hp stock and when I tried figuring it out I got between 335-355. I'd appreciate it if ya'll could give me what ya'll think it'd be.

CRS electric fuel pump
All MSD ignition
Headers to 3" borla adjustable exhaust
Bored throttle body ns mass sensor with cold air intake
Transpak shift kit (strip)
stronger rear end alloy axel
Tubulor control arms with adjustable panhard bar

So what is the measurement on the TB now, 58mm? Is the intake untouched or has it also been ported? What headers installed? What about the heads?

I'm just interested in the setup, I probably can't give a good hp estimate though. so jw.

The bold items are really the only power adders here.
If the car has long tube headers I'd expect 270 out of a full bolt-ons car like that at the wheels... probably around 335 at the flywheel.

dyno pulls are cheap enough and you don't know the condition of the internals

Cliff, kindly stop posting this identical question in numerous places throughout the forum. This one will suffice. The others are gone.

It has aftermarket intake and injectors. Borla headers. Not sure about the heads or the throttle body

D-Y-N-O

the exhaust doesn't sound like the cam has been changed

sooooooo, you have LT's and a CAI and maybe a tune

auto tranny. If the engine is in decent shape you might be around 270-275 RWHP

go get it dyno'd if it's important to you

what does it matter how much it's putting down unless you just want to get into comparing d#$k sizes with other kids

I'd get those scratches fixed and maybe re-spray the car before dumping any performance dollars into it. Our vehicles spend more time with the engine off than on.
