1971 rear wheel HP
How much rear wheel horsepower did a 1971 automatic 442 make?
How much difference compared to a 4 speed with the wilder cam?
How much did it lose compared with the high compression version 1970 models?
Thanks

Cool ^ to see a member from Moscow enjoying an American Muscle car.
Russian or an American implant ??
1971 had a lower compression motor then 1970 so HP suffered slightly.
~340hp at the crank minus 15% drivetrain loss for manual transmissions.
So 340 x .85 = ~289rwhp

The engine was built in US according to my specifications and shipped together with a TH400 rebuild to me.
The rest was done in Moscow (frame-off) .
