It's at the flywheel. I don't think there has ever been a vehicle marketed in the history of mankind with rwhp because it would put the automotive company selling the vehicle at a disadvantage.

well if its only 300hp then thats awsome becasue a 4500lbs truck with 300hp runs a 13. A vette might break a high 12 with 350hp and weighs 1000lbs less

The Lightning is an awesome truck. As for a Z06, I have heard they usually dyno between 320-350 at the wheels and have no trouble what so ever breaking into the 12's. Many stock Z06's break into the 11's.

Most stock L's dyno between 325-335 RWHP. But there have been a few freaks, Jonathan's 03 with just a catback dynoed at 365 rwhp.

These trucks are quite underrated. Just look at my sig. I make the advertised flywheel torque at the rearwheels. Thats almost 500 at the fly

Actually, the numbers would be 16RWKW/19RWNM! :thumbsup:

The Lightning's driveline loss is only 11%. Very efficient driveline compared to most. 380 hp - 11% = 338 hp. + or -
