I`d say 360sh, would be nice and punchy though

Mines on a .48, and greys, live mapped, it pulls really well

Didnt Mike R get 385 "back in the old days, on proper fuel"? Or was that a Group A hybrid T3?

This is what i am going to find out when i get my 500ic fitted

Currently 272@wheels with a 4x4 ic and 500ic will be going on in 2-3 weeks when i come back onshore.

I know that a .55 housing can make 290 odd@wheels so i'm guessing i could get 280-285. Wait and see though!

As Andreas stated, I got 385bhp / 403lb ft from a T34 0.48 a/r on four greens way back in 1998 . This was sufficient to do a Datron recorded 172mph (along with six other 170mph runs on the same day ).

With today's fuel lacking the necessary benzine for knock protection at high load, the best you could expect to see is 375bhp, and as Bill has stated, you would need light blues for that...
