Mr C, there were various ways of measuring engine power here in America in the sixties and especially in the seventies. Not much control or continuity, some were at the rear wheels, some were at the crankshaft, I truthfully don't know how it was done at Oldsmobile in 1969 but I can say that all of Oldsmobiles engines are very torquey "is that a word?" I bet you could pull tree stumps with it!!!!!!!Performance on the road is also determined by the rear axle ratio. I know my '69 Delta has a 3:23rear axle ratio, great for highway driving but not too great for quick acceleration.
