I have a 97 black/gray int 6 speed targa...haven't had the opportunity to drive it yet, I pick it up today. Looks like it needs a little TLC, which I'm willing to give in droves, thenk goodness I have LS1 experience!

Well, by the posted rating 275... but chevy changed the way they rated hp in 72 for the 73 year. Up until 73 they rated gross at the crank, and to appease the rule makers changed it to rear wheel (incidently... the same as the other big 2). The 73 was actually closer to 360 hp with a posted 395 ft lbs of torque. You kind of had to read between the lines to get there... hard to produce 395 ft lbs at the rear wheels with 275 at the crank...

[sm=icon_rock.gif]sorry for the typo , I meant 345hp. Yea I know they had to please DOT by lowering ratings. But a BB is a BB , right? Cant beat cubic inch for fun! My Indian Chief is a 100 cu.in and my CMC,S&S is a 88"Both aare plenty fast but love my Indian!

Know what'cha mean... he said knowingly...nod nod wink wink... mines a 1987 full custom FXLRC 96" with a 40 deg rake wide glide. Seat sits just below my knee...'bout 23" off the pavement. 102 hp with shaved flywheels built by HeadQuarters in Canada. Almost too much to hang on to.
