MSO documentation

[PhilS]

Multiplying by 8 would give you 462.4 hp. I think this would be pretty close to correct for a blueprinted engine. Years ago a friend who had held some national records with small block Chevys told me that a blueprinted 302 would make about 380 hp. I think the MSO rating on Zs is 48. That comes to 384 hp. I looked at a bunch of new MSOs at a friends GM dealership recently and the nembers seemed pretty consistent. I'm certainly not sure of anything about this and that is why I'm seeking more info but if it is valid then it might provide another way to document cars without other paperwork. It seems that there might be too many inconsistencies though. More investigation needed. I'd like to see an MSO for an L-72 Vette.
