Not sure on the #'s but I had a 87 and it was slow for a vette, drove great but about the same as an iroc.

1987 Corvette...240hp/345tq

I found these #'s for the 77 on two different sites...L48 had 180hp net and the L82 210hp net

You'd take both of them. The '77 has a smog motor, whether it's the L48 or the L82, you should be able to take both of them. The '87 will be harder than the '77.

I think you may get spanked, sorry; If you have the luck I did. I know that theyare almost the exact motor, but the corvette is lighter,and dad's usually have a trick or 2. My x and I raced his 90 or 91 corvette which i think is still the same motor as my 5.7 or very close and I lost bad. OR my car just sucks that bad(good possibility).

1987 curb weight: 3225ish pounds...so were talkin 150lbs lighter, but yes, they will get more out of their 240hp/345tq but I still think you should take him...your car is newer and probably in better mechanical shape because of that, and I think the LS1 will def take them
