Stock LT5s made 375-hp SAE net or 425-hp gross with open exhaust.
The so called "third generation LT5" which would have gone to production for 1995 had additional improvements, including variable valve timing, and would have been rated at 475-hp SAE net. The development program which was that engine ended when the ZR-1 was killed.

Gawd Hib you are full of yourself. I shall dig through my stack of magazines tonight to rebutt you. No, on second thought I have better things to do with my life.
