* Different Models, Different Power: The 350 CI (Cubic Inch) engine was used in a wide variety of Chevrolet vehicles in 1992. Each vehicle and even different trim levels within the same model could have different engine configurations resulting in varying horsepower outputs.
* Engine Modifications: Many owners modify their engines for performance. This could include things like:
* Different camshafts
* Higher compression pistons
* Performance exhaust systems
* Intake manifold changes
* Superchargers or turbochargers
How to Find the Horsepower:
1. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN): The most accurate way is to get the VIN of the specific vehicle. You can use online VIN decoders or contact a dealer or mechanic to find the engine's original specifications.
2. Engine Code: The engine block usually has a code stamped on it. This code can help identify the exact engine configuration and horsepower.
3. Original Sales Brochure: If you still have the original sales brochure for the vehicle, it may list the horsepower for that particular model.
Example: A 1992 Chevy Silverado with a 5.7L 350 CI engine could have anywhere from 160 to 230 horsepower depending on the specific model and options.
