Is there any way short of placing my car on a dynamometer to determine whether the 289 in my car is the 210HP or the 225HP version? The VIN number is no help since the current engine in the car is a replacement for the original 260 cu in. The engine has a 4 BBL and is quite peppy when I punch it. Not to be confused with the "neck snapping" acceleration you folks with the later model Cobras or GTs are used to but still good for a 40 year old car.
It really doesn't matter whether it is 210 or 225 HP since the car never gets past 55 mph anyways. Also in the past there have been lengthy discussions how these older "inflated" HP ratings correspond to 170 or so current day eqivalents so please no flames.
Thanks
