Indy horsepower was 155. After factoring it's at 182 and natural r/s.

If it is not top secret, what kind of horse power does one of these 4.3's make. BTW ya gotta love a truck! Don Jackson.

Its a secret at our house.

Lol, I understand what you are saying. Did I mention I love the truck?

Re: Larry Hill's V/S Chevy PU
 

If you want to get an idea, consider that it weighs around 3500 lb and ran around 100 mph at Indy. There are websites with formula calulators that will attached a hp figure to those numbers. Not exact, but at least give you a lower limit. Oh, and consider that it has all the aerodynamics of a UPS truck.

Best mph 106.65 second round at Indy.

That truck is amazing ! A full size truck with a stock V6 running in the 12s. I don't think anyone else will ever run that far under the index.
I can hardly wait to see what he has planned for the 70th U S Nationals.

Chris that's why I posted. Just real impressed by the truck. I ran a light flywheel 11lbs. In my 4100 Impala with the 396/325 which goes against what some people think. Do you run a heavy flywheel 30lbs?

Using an antique moroso slide rule it looks like around 325. Is it close Larry.
