wow very nice. 361 at the wheels. a lot of ppl brag about their hp/tq, but never produce anything to back it up except "butt dyno"
are you happy with it?

i was talking to a guy that has a Kleemann sc for sale at the Nurburgring he has a garage there then I spoke Claus at Kleemann who said they won’t supply parts and that I should buy new. I didn’t want that plus it might be to much power

I’ll have the new tensonier next Thursday then I’ll do a video. I can’t wait to get it on the dyno but first I need to get the headers made and coated as the old OBX headers are warped and leake. I’ve had it with trying to get headers the only way is to have them made. The guy doing it worked in motorsport Angie will charge around £1200

This is wheel horsepower versus the 302 being crank horsepower. A C43 makes ~240-245 horsepower at the wheels stock. Assuming equivalent drivetrain loss (as a percentage), 320 wheel horsepower works out to roughly 400 crank horsepower.
