Factory Engine Output Numbers

Is there a source for all the HP/Torque ratings for stock engines through the Dent years?


I just want a chuckle out of folks when I talk to people about the HUGE power out of my stock 1977 351 2v....hahaha


Aren't these things something like 135-140HP? Torque numbers should still be reasonable....

Keep in mind in the early 70s that the ratings changed from gross HP to net HP.

Right, and they still use Net HP now, so it's a good comparison to a modern truck
