Wonderful article! (https://www.hemmings.com/blog/article/venomous-1970-ford-torino-cobra/?refer=news&utm_source=edaily&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2020-03-05)
Super Cobra Jet rebuilt to 100% stock specs: 440HP at the rollers -- not too shabby -- that's 518 at the engine assuming 15% driveline loss which with the C6, the Detroit locker, and the 9-inch is VERY conservative ...probably more like 530 which is what some had speculated back then.
They didn't mention anything about Ford putting the SCJ in the Torino for NASCAR homologation purposes, which is my understanding ...that sport-roof is very slippery w/o the slats :weg:
