ive got a 79 mecury cougar...you wouldnt happen to know how much horsepower it would have, would you...im new so welcome!

welcome people, i just joined myself and still findin my way around here but see a lot of knowledge/talent and good info sources here. nice people too.

. jr, that impala ss sounds like a custom machine, what's under the hood? is it mostly show for now or also go..that 4 speed sounds like a go direction even though i'm partial to autos..
49-51 mercs are among my top 3 favorite rides to have [radically but well chopped and in black please], and another is '33-'34 blown hi-boy ford w/chop/channel and in blk primer with a '32 grille but there's no such a thing as a '32 model a tudor..if it's model a than it's pre '32...unless i'm high right now.

2-moon, i dunno the factory hp ratings of those later cougars but it should be easy enough to find via google, etc..just type in the year/model then look for returns that list sites of specs/history..i'm not certain if edelbrock came as a factory option on these cats so likely your 351 might be slightly bumped up from stock specs by a previous owner[s].

thanks the, Impalas got a few goods under the hood opened up the breathing and the exhaling, along with the gearing makes it a formidable opponent for most streetlight drags. Probably a 383 or SC in the future.

Agreed chopped mercs althe way.

As far as my old T-Bird stock they are aroudn 255 my had about 350 at the wheels, massive modifications (like 15-20lbs) of boost lead that car lead to early detination...

as far as a79 goes.. i have not a clue.. whats the engine size?

oh crap, sorry man-i meant that comment towards twin-moon that's uno..

segundo-i goofed because he asked for hp specs [in his 'intro' post] about '79 cougar not t-bird but in my well abused noggin' i changed it to t-bird..i'll edit it to read right

383 would sound nice btw.
