- tyingq 4y agoRight...it's 200 BHP @ 2700 RPM, which is way below the RPM range you would measure peak horsepower in a car. Edit: A dyno graph from an late 1990's Corvette C5 engine (5.7L) shows about 170HP @ 2700 RPM. That's at the wheels, so probably close-ish to 195HP at the crank: https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.corvetteforum.com-vbulletin/1297x975/20171125_160043_4b29e98e8a19d361dc7b75693a685ee39b3e4a5c.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.corvetteforum.com-vbulletin...
