All auto makers used flywheel or gross HP ratings until somewhere in the

It's an '82 from a Wagoneer. It's in my '84 CJ. I've got a Edelbrock
Performer 600 cfm four barrel, Performer Intake, K&N filter, headers, 2.5"
duals w/ cats and dynomax turbo mufflers.

Thank you! I didn't know that's the way they came. That will work

twist that motor up to.
