HP reduction?

Disregard. I figured it out. Weight breaks are different per platform. HP is the same across the board.

My good friend Daran Summerton ran one of these wagons a decade or so ago. As I remember it was a top qualifier AND he didn’t spend a FORTUNE on it.....

Guess it doesn't matter. Nov 17 was cut off for request. I thought it was Dec 17th.

Ask for the reduction and blame the delay of your request on Covid!

The hp rating is supposed to be for eng. and platform. My car is a 1981 camaro with a 305 rated at 237 hp. In a nova it's 230. also different in a impala . My hp was hit several years ago by a 1984 firebird witch is a totally different car,but the novas did not .

This is correct. I recieved an email from Pat C. and he stated the same thing. My letter is on file for next year as I sent 3 weeks to late.
