Ernie:
That 227 mph designation was something Phil Spector put on that car in the early 70s. The car was never close to that number. Remington told me that with a 430 hp 289 cid engine--which was just about the max they could reliably obtain from the SB Ford-- the Daytona was capable of around 180-185 mph, tops.
I am speaking of the original Coupes. I have limited knowledge of what tricks the Brock/SPF Coupe has and what that car might be able to do.
