[T3] Horsepower at the wheels.

[John Jaranson <jaransonT3@comcast.net>]

<x-flowed>I took Sophy to a local Street Rod/Muscle Car show over the weekend.  
She was well received.  Particularly the flame job.  Anywho....they had 
a coupe of portable chassis dynos at the show.

So.....for grins I put Sophy up on the Livernois Motorsports dyno and 
had them do a couple of pulls.  Results were about what I was 
expecting.

Peak HP  		46.3 HP	at 3900 RPM  at the Rear wheels
Max Torque	69.8 ft-lbs at 3300 rpm

Not too bad for a basically stock engine.

Of course the guy that followed me was a Ford Ranger with a blown big 
block that made over 870 HP. <G>

It was still interesting to put her up there and see what she had.  
Especially if I get a chance to build her a new motor over the winter 
and then see what the improvement is.
