26-06-07, 17:13 GMT+10#24 hhhm well these autos are built pretty stout, dunno if they could be loosing much power through these toughly built powerglides!
but still, would be awesome to see a manual, say a GTR 6 speed in say the JPC car. that would have to take off in third gear!!!

GTR 6 speed would go bang very fast.
vlt 5 speed will last just as long with that power, so long as you dont use 5th gear.

yes Mark but the car was never raced on that power. Are we talking about what power the engines were making when raced or overall best dyno number??

ahh k sorry, then yeah it was somewhere around the 670 mark. i remember there was a thread about it a while ago.
i think having a powerful vl is awesome but if your having trouble getting the power down like Chopa, KD-747, Ben's old car, Boostn and maxpsi, then its kinda is useless as it gets pretty wild down the strip. imo get all these engines down to a engine dyno and go for it, head to head, would be interesting.
