Re: interesting read on fuel saver horsepucky
I couldn't believe it when I came out of the ARMY and a friend had
bought an eleven second Camaro for '68. Something I had worked very hard
to do with about three times the money before the ARMY and marriage.

I was reading an article in the new "skinned knuckles" about the history of
Cadillac V-8s, and came across these interesting facts.
Cadillac built in the first year of V-8 production, 1915, 13,002 engines.
They weren't the first to make a V-8, but were first to mass- produce one.
The "314" Series (and CID) built until 1927 had 60 HP,
then the "341" (27-29)had 90 HP.
The "353" of 29-30 had 96 HP,
In35 came the "346" with a whopping 130 HP.
From 36 to 48, (last year for the flatheads) "346" HP crept up from 135 to
150.
Wartime "349" was at 110 HP.
In 49 their first OHV engine was the "331" at 160 HP. These came in High
Compression, at 7.5:1, and by 55 these engines with a 9:1 Cr and two 4
barrels could make 270 Hp, making them hot for rodders.
56 brought the "365" with 335 HP
58 brought the "390" with 345 hp
The 60s and 70s brought the 429, 472, and the 500.
In 70 the El Dorado had a 500 Cid engine putting out 400 Hp, but then came
smog rules and the same engines in 75 and 76 were rated at 190 Hp, and they
went down from there.
It goes on, and they rekon that the Northstar 279, if tested the same way as
the older engines, (gross Vs net) should gross around 500 Hp.
I rebuilt a 314 and a 346, both were in very good condition due to excellent
metallurgy and high standards of production. Cadillac used to be the
standard everyone aimed for, but the 70's did to them what it did to
everyone else, it became necessary to produce cheap crap to compete with
Japan, and comply with emmission standards not written by engineers.

You could buy Super Stock ready vehicles up till 70-71 and for a few years
after that you could buy a hemi race motor in a crate at your corner Dodge
