Well, with the upcoming dyno day at Custom Exhaust Specialists in brisbane (see 2007 events section) on next Saturday (28 July).....
Throw in your guess for how much power the stonking 54 oval will make? With an alleged 36hp from new, do you think it will make more than 20hp at the rear wheels?? I reckon it may very well be the lowest hp vehicle on their dyno ever (to be confirmed)....
My guess is 27.05hp.
Prize is the custom made clock pictured below - will post no cost to winner. Throw in your guess - good luck!

PS oval runs on optimax with stock everything else - I did clean the carb out the other day which I feel has added another 0.02hp - so take that into consideration. 😂

No idea how fresh the motor is - I dare say not very fresh but it runs like a champ - I've done bugger all to it since selling the ragotp and getting this as part trade. It runs so I leave it well alone!
PS - the engine and gearbox will be up for sale not long after dyno day so this could be a rare objective, unbiased insight into what you could potentially be purchasing 😉
Today the dyno..... tomorrow the for sale section 👍
I think I'll need every cent I can get judging by all the bills that are adding up just to get the oval ready for warwick!
But I think a reasonable reward will be a custom made vw-inspired wall mounted clock.....I'll post pics when finished, but here are a couple I've done earlier (not vw inspired though)
