Last year for the LS4 454 cu. in the Corvette was 1974. It was putting out 270 hp. Back in 1960 a Corvette with a 283 cu. fuelie set up was putting out an advertised 315 hp. If it was equiped with a 283 cu. dual 2 x 4 set up it was putting out 270 hp. My point is for all the cubes a 454 has it lacks the ponies.
