Have you guys that are complaining about Ford and Chrysler deflating the horsepower factors been living in a cave the last 45 years? Please spare us the self righteousness. Do you think that in 1966, it was just a fluke that a 426 hemi, 427 chevy and a 427 FE Ford were all rated at exactly 425 horsepower? How about the 1969 255 Hp 350 and the 1968- 70 428 Cobra Jet that are famous for being underfactored? How about the 67-69 290 HP 302 z-28 and the 69-70 boss 302 that was also rated at 290 HP. This stuff has been going on ever since I got involved with Stock and Super Stock 40 tears ago! How about just complaining about that fact that the horsepower factors aren't right and get off your high horse about Ford and Chrysler sending in conservative numbers. I will bet that if you pulled up a Dyno Sheet from all of the engines , you might be able to find a place where they actually produced the horsepower claimed but it wasn't the actual peak horsepower. Get over it!
