I think we need to take into account engines that finish races and show speed on the track.

Not dyno figures or 1 pull high boost figures dont you think.

Reliability is the key with big horsepower

Well I reckon our Falcon goes alright with only 570 HP! Not bad for a Cleveland block. Not enough I know, but we're reliable and it feels pretty quick to me ;)

I know it depends on the dyno, but there are a few that use Mark McLaughlan's dyno up here in QLD.
For the most HP, I'll back Charlie Senese's Honda Prelude - Chev. Phil Crompton and Kerry Baily would probably also be pretty close.

As for who gets it to the ground the best which is the most important thing - Tony Ricciardello, Kerry Baily and Dean Randle.

Graham Smith's Calibra also has plenty but takes a while to get wound up :) I know this because I slammed the door on him going into Turn 1 at QR (watching that thing coming at me in the mirrors was pretty impressive.....)

I drove Big Col Smith's Rover at a State Round last year and I know what over 620HP feels like..... I also now hold the record for laying the most black patches around Morgan Park :)
