Don't let our government get any ideas.
Actually, our goverment already had that idea! That's why 428 CJ's and the like were "ONLY" rated at 335 hp. All the manufacturers were "under rating" the horsepower numbers, the government was investigating taxable horsepower but realized enforcement was going to be miserable.

I'd question the reliability of the Austins 7 horsepower number.

BTW, Your car is going to be awesome! Great Job so far! Keep up the good work!
