If you update you should get the new curves. The standard V8 makes peak torque at 2500 rpm and I think the I6 peaks a little lower.
Mabe its just me, but I think the rear quarter panels, trunk, and roof are a bit too strong. The front seems just right though. Any opinions?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_FE_engine#428 Ford FE 428, as seen in the 1970 mercury cougar. I beat you by seven years and an estimated 200HP. Where is my cookie.
That doesn't count. Engines before 1973 made a lot more power because they used leaded gasoline and didn't have to comply with any emissions regulations. Look at any car's horsepower figures between 1973 and 1970 - cars with exactly the same engine were making half as much power.
fords 1974 351 cleveland was advertised as 260hp with 481nm, although if you swapped the heads with the 302 cleveland you could get up to 300hp. but i think those figures would be at the fly rather than the wheels.
