Yeah it has 340 000 on it, hence the rebuild hahaha.

dont know if it was advertised as it was my mates step dads he wasnt selling it until i asked for it haha.

i was after something hsv numbered that wasnt mass produced and this popped up so i got it. so far so good.

How does a stock 5L come out with 220 kw at the wheels?

Pretty sure they were 220 FWKW from new when specified as 5.7 litres. Other than your post I don't see any mention of 5L 220 RWKW.

Aren't all series 1 VT Senators 5L ?

And I assumed by the multiple mentions of 220kw the OP was referring to ATW.

Nobody relies on Flywheel power figures these days except manufacturers really

HSV had a 5 litre as base and a stroked 5.7 as option on Sen + GTS (amongst others) from VR - VT1.
