horsepower

[Jerry Clayton]

I have lots of faith in the small block ford---but I don't see a 351windsor with 9to1 compression and a mild cam, whose specs are in doubt, making very much horsepower---it is a big bearing, heavy rod/piston combo and needs tweaking in about every way possible to get it anywhere

Jerry I plan on hitin the dyno in May Or June hopfully I'm closer to what I think , if not it will come apart and do some of things i've herd on here.

Ok time to let the cat out of the bag, this motor was built by York Sports Cars inc. 365hp/380ft-lb. Some of you where close, some way off the mark.

Oh, so that was a game. I got pretty close. I said, "That 280 must be advertised duration. So it must be in the 212-220 range at .050 depending if the specs were .004 or .006. I think the lower range is correct and maybe that is a tad high."
The 212-220 I was referring to was cam duration at .050. The lower range was correct.
OK, let's play again!
