Your HP computed from your vehicle ET is 242.59 rear wheel HP and 269.55 flywheel HP.
Your HP computed from your vehicle MPH is 235.69 rear wheel HP and 261.88 flywheel HP.

Not bad for a little motor. How big is it?

Thanks, I just moved here to SC, I'm from Alabama, I used to take the SUPER BEETLE and race down there at One Way Dragway down in Cottonwood,AL all the time, I don't know if ya'll have ever been there, but that's my stompin grounds. I met some dude at the gas station here and he was telling me about carolinahorsepower.com so I figured I'd see what was up around this part of town

I've driven through Alabama once on my way to Memphis for the Pump Gas Drags and flew over it once on my way to New Orleans, lol.
Welcome to SC. I'm about 2 hours or so north from you. They used to have VW day at Darlington, now they do it at Rockingham I think.

Those VW motors are some pretty cool pieces to work with. A friend of mine from school had a '72 beetle. He used the bottom end, pistons and rings from one motor, and the topend from another...jugs/heads, etc. Old rings from one motor on old jugs from another...never thought it'd work, but it did. That was 8 years ago, still see it around town, lol.
