1969 Hurst/Olds Horsepower?

I received a book on Muscle Cars for Christmas and found a two page layout on the 1969 Hurst/Olds. The book is saying that they were rated at 380HP and 500lbs of torque from the factory, but I think these numbers are way underrated considering the quartermile time listed of 14.03@101.

Has anyone dyno tested an origionally restored engine for this car?
