'93 stock C4 Torque 340 lbs @ ?

Does anyone know what the official GM numbers were for the '93 LT-1 C4. I've seen various torque numbers quoted from 340 lbs/ft @3400rpm to 340 lbs/ft @4000rpm. Again, we're talking official stock...

LT-4 Question

I know that all LT-4s came with a 6 speed stick. Other than that, did LT-4s come as part of a "package" or was it an engine that could be ordered with any '96 as long as it was a stick?

I'd say get the 1997 & on BMW 540i. A bit smaller & lighter than a 740, a lot sportier & you still have the almost 300hp V8. Smooth, quick & stylish cars. There are plenty of these in the used...

I see. That makes sense. So the comment of having beaten the car by 2 car lengths, while technically correct, is not really an accurate representation of the performance of either car in this case.

In that case the C4 should have kicked its ass...............since it probably still had close to a 600 lb weight advantage.

So according to the graph, the 1970 LT-1 gross hp of 370 converts to 315 net in todays way of measuring? Is that accurate? For some reason I thought it was less than 300 in today numbers.

So, just to be clear. Does this kit contain whatever is needed regardless of whether its the bushing, the gear or both? I have a '93. How much would it be in my case?
