I had a 1983 Berlinetta. Base HP was 106, not 102...at those low HP numbers, every horse matters!

Great video tho...bookmarked it!

Yep, nice. Kinda surprised at the model with 400+ hp in the 60s.

HP ratings aren’t what the seem. Until 1973, MFGRs ratedHP using SAE gross - meaning they rated the horsepower at the crank with no accessory load and not connected to a transmission and certainly not wheels on the ground. So horsepower ratings at the peak of the first muscle car era were quite skewed. Take 20-30% off to compare to modern ratings.

From 1973 - 2004 they used SAE net version 1.0. That was much more accurate taking HP at the crank, under load, with all emission controls. But still not completely accurate. Take 5-10% off comparing to today’s numbers.

Then in 2004 the SAE finally started rating HP for what realistically hits the ground. Our 6th gen SS with 455 hp has 455 real hp hitting the ground.

That’s why our modern base Camaro SS will leave even the most powerful vintage Camaros in the dust. A sought after ‘69 aluminum 427 ZL1 “rated” at 420 Hp with a 4 speed Muncie might sell for $250,000 at Barrett-Jackson but a 2018 $40,000 Camaro SS with a stock 8 speed auto will leave it in the dust.

And the V6 Camaro will not be embarrassed
