I need some help with a horsepower question. I'm putting together plans for a '32 Ford, fiberglass body, 350 SBC, 700R4 transmission, 3.70 gear (approx). What kind of horsepower will I need to really move this light weight car, guessing 2400 to 2600 lbs? I'm not talking about the drag strip, but a really strong street car without overkill. What horsepower will I need to smoke the tires from a standing start and still be a streetable daily driver? Having never owned anything considered to be a powerful engine, I'm at a loss to pull a number out of the air. Top end and high RPM's do not interest me. I'm thinking more about bottom end and strong low RPM torque. Any and all opinions will be greatly appreciated....
