I do believe they were around 8000-8500 rpm motors. There is a guy near me that has a black one fully restored and painted with black laquer. Has the DZ302 with a 4speed. Just a great driving car. He has taken me for a ride after I have detailed it. They are badass!!!

I'm not sure Frank. On my car, I never went that high. On my stock DZ302 on the engine dyno, it looked like Max HP=356 at 6400 rpm. The graph looks like it could have kept on going though.

Edit: The motor is 30 over, but other than that it's completely stock.

I did read about a 1968 Z/28 with a stock DZ302 that makes 456 HP @7700rpm and it ran 10.80 @122.30mph.
