stock around 180hp with the 2 barrel and a little less with th 4 barrel
It depends on what year it was made, and what it was installed in. Chevrolet never made a high performance 400 small block. They used the 396/402 for high performance applications. The small block 400 was typically installed in heavy cars like station wagons.
About 450.
