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.

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.
