300 1V I-6 = 170 Gross HP @ 4,000 RPM.
The NET HP & RPM figures are listed on your trucks Warranty Plate, located on the face of the left door below the latch.
I do not recall what the 240's net HP figure is, but...it's more than 90. That figure is close to what the anemic Falcon 170 I-6 makes.
Usually the difference between gross and net HP on engines of this vintage is circa 15%, which means the 240's net HP is around 112-115.
