Doc, I had the "750" handle before I even had the motor, and I was just guessing at the time what it would make. Pretty close, I'd say!
Re: inverse proportions. I put it to you that my motor is still merely a small block, pushrod engine based on what was available in the early "slabside" 289 Cobras. While it may have the odd power-adding enhancement here or there, I can prove that at the national highway speed limit, my engine is producing 235.5 kilowatts at the flywheel, and therefore much less at the tyres. Unless I am mistaken, this is less than the peak power available in not only the latest Ford and Chev V8 motors, but also the Turbo XR6. No compensation problems here, then!!!
Maybe we should have a think about you Melbourne guys for a second. All of this talk about the cold winter temperatures as a feeble attempt at justifying "shrinkage"
