What's the displacement?
Besides the impressive torque & power @6,500 RPM, it's apparently quite efficient- BSFC .442 @ max power.

I have the magazine that explained the car back then. Thanks. Locally a Pontiac friend Jim Miller acquired V heads back in 71 and a small journal moldex crank. It ran a 2bbl class-dominator cut in half.Placed engine in a dirt track 69 abody. The chebies went nuts. I saw the car run,Don would come off turn2 and be at turn 3 before the 454 chevies were half way down the straight. Engine was sold later, I was in college.it was impressive. The H-O racing's paper did a article on the car.
