Re: Horsepowers
The 396 Chev and the 392 Mopar are about the same. We just didn't get to earn our way to 430, we just got it. The Bow Tie started life @ 390 and is now 429 I think, and we birthed at 400 and rebirthed at 430. None made as of yet.

Guy in MN has been running same combo for 30+ years in bad air. Since he got hit to 299, he repeatedly gets his *** kicked heads up by the same engine in an A-body platform rated at 293. He scribes letter to the mothership asking to be put back to normal so he has a shot. Another dude on the good air side of our world let it eat a few too many times during qualifying. Hopefully he earned a lot of byes / round wins thru his efforts to validate the HP increase. Last I looked, there are around 3 of these cars left racing. One of the most beautiful body styles around, but they are getting less competitive every time HP comes out. I know of one I'd be surprised to see running Stock next year☹️
