* SAE certified: A voluntary power and torque certification procedure developed by the SAE Engine Test Code Committee was approved March 31. The procedure (J2723) ensures fair, accurate ratings for horsepower and torque by allowing manufacturers to certify their engines through third-party witness testing to the SAE J1349 standard. GM was the first auto manufacturer to begin using this procedure and expects to use it for all newly rated engines in the future.
