Re: Horsepower rating difference in 86 to87
Actually, the chip update thing was more for cold idle and cold start emissions (and there was another "recall" chip that came later in 87 too).
The drivetrains are basically identical and the HP was pretty much advertising trickery.
If you notice, the ratings are at different RPMs in 86 and 87.
