Hi all. First post here. I've been lurking for a while though. I picked up my ZL1 a couple months ago and since then I've been approached a couple times and people ask "How much horsepower?" What is your response? Mine is still stock and all the marketing says 580. We all know that's at the crank and there is less than that at the wheels, but that's really what counts. Especially for you folks who are modified... do you quote the marketing numbers or try to explain the difference in crank vs rwhp? Just curious how everyone answers this question.
