Sorry Dude, that's simply not true. Plus it had a ton of torque. I forgot mention it was warmed over; Some examples:

505 lift, 310 duration
High dome pistons
3-angle valve job
Block decked 5mil, heads 5 mil
12.5:1 compression
Tunnel ram and 2-fours
Hooker headers w/hush thrush mufflers

Could breathe it in and exhale.

Dana 60 rear end with ladder bars.

Could jump a coke bottle from a dead stop.
