Real Holden 6.0L combinations and measured results
These cars show the range possible from LS2, L98 and L77 engines with different camshafts, cylinder heads, exhausts and intakes. Power varies with engine condition, parts, fuel, transmission and the complete setup. We tune each car around its own combination rather than chasing one fixed figure.

6.0L dyno result questions
What affects Holden 6.0L rear-wheel power?
What power will my Holden 6.0L make?
The result depends on the engine’s condition and the complete combination. Camshaft, cylinder heads, intake, exhaust, fuel and transmission all affect the final figure. These five cars show a measured range from 288.1 to 374.1 rwkW.
How much power can a stock-cam L98 make?
Robert’s stock-cam manual L98 wagon recorded 288.1 rwkW with a performance exhaust, VCM OTR and custom dyno tune. Your result may differ with engine condition, transmission, fuel and the parts fitted.
Why do similar 6.0L builds make different power?
Cars with similar parts can differ because of engine condition, camshaft specifications, head flow, exhaust restrictions, fuel quality and calibration. Dyno type and test method also change reported figures, so results recorded on the same dyno provide a better comparison.
Where were these 6.0L dyno results measured?
All five cars were measured at Oztrack Engineering & Tuning in Penrith, Western Sydney, using our Mainline ProHub dyno.
Can Oztrack tune LS2, L98 and L77 engines?
Yes. Oztrack dyno tunes Holden LS-based combinations including the LS2, L98 and L77 engines shown on this page. You can also compare our LS3 dyno tuning results.
