These are all US Spec models, figures from the owners manuals: 1963 (1493cc) - 53bhp at 4000rpm (SAE) 1965 (1493cc) - 66bhp at 4800rpm (SAE) 1966 (1584cc) - 65bhp at 4600rpm (SAE) 1967 (1584cc) - 65bhp at 4600rpm (SAE) 1968 (1584cc) - 65bhp at 4600rpm (SAE) 1969 (1584cc) - 65bhp at 4600rpm (SAE) 1970 (1584cc) - 65bhp at 4600rpm (SAE) 1971 (1584cc) - 65bhp at 4600rpm (SAE) 1973 (1584cc) - 52hp at 4000rpm (SAE), torque is 77.0 ft/lb at 2200rpm 1972 -- not listed? Torque rating is same as 71(86.8ft/lb at 2800 SAE), so I imagine hp is probably the same as well . ===== -------------------------------------------- 1971 FI AT Squareback http://www.tiserves.com/VW/ vw_variant71@yahoo.com -------------------------------------------- __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
