Rear-end weight difference

Thanks! WOW! 230 whole horsepower? Geez, it's around 200 at the crank now. What are the chances that a turbo will add 30 h.p.? <gasp> What if it adds 35? Or 40? Is it worth it to upgrade the rear then?

If you don't think a slant can make 230 (or more) horsepower (1 h.p. per cubic inch in my case, BTW), let me point you BACK to slantsix.org. There are several guys there you should talk to.



You got a guy on org right now:10:1 comp,shaved & ported head,custom howard grind cam,258 cubes,1.86/1.5 valves,4bbl offy,holley truck avenger 470cfm,arp bolts throughout,forged pistons,dutra front,msd 6al,blaster coil,etc,ect.......236.5hp at the crank,roughly 145 hp to the rear wheels :sad1:
The guy spent thousands on this motor.

Trust me,I have been a advocate of this motor for years,and still am.
Truth of the matter is my 318 car with a couple bolt on's will litterally walk away from my nicely built slant car.
