What Camaro Has The Most Horsepower

Sadly this marked the last year for 9-plus compression ratio engines.

What camaro has the most horsepower. The Camaro SS has 455 horsepower and costs just 2016 making it the cheapest to insure and only a few dollars on average per year more than the LT1. Specialty Vehicle Engineering the same folks who previously brought us a 1000-hp Corvette announced today that the new extreme-performance Camaro its building will be limited to. The 1SS is the base model introducing the more advanced engine while the 2SS adds comfort amenities to that base.

The base engine was the LG4 50-liter V8 with 155 horsepower and 245 lb-ft- of torque. However true to form the Challenger is still the most expensive of the three at 2329 per year. Where the Devel Sixteen aims to produce up to 5000 horsepower out of 16 cylinders this Camaros relatively tame 2000-hp goal comes from a 525ci LS-based V8 dubbed the SMX.

When the fifth generation Camaro launched in 2010 its 57-liter V-8 produced as much as 426 SAE certified horsepower but even the entry level 36-liter V-6 made over 300 horsepower more than any Camaro built during the cars entire third generation. Next up was the carbureted L69 305-cubic inch V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 lb-ft. Camaro output peaked in 1970 with 375 hp and 415 lb-ft big-block SS Camaro but by 1975 the most powerful V8 model offered only 155 hp.
