Personally, this is not the example I would use to make the case that you can make power with low compression.
I know what you are saying. I didn't build i, but it made power. Mismatched parts and all.


Hmmmm. I would call it a good running car, but not good power. Unless the A body weighed 4200 lbs, or the DA was 10,000 ft, that motor does make good power IMO. Of course the details matter.
Ran it @ Keystone about 3600 w/me back then. I'd say around 400hp or less.
