Reply to "Mangusta engine build up info"

The original posting was authored by Steven Liebenow and I simply started a thread based on it. Linda owns a 1969 Mangusta and her car runs a Boss 302 with Windsor heads, an Offenhauser manifold and a 750 Holley. This is what the car came equipped with and it performs quite well. From my experience and after seeing a number of 'Geese around, the car is too fragile to cope with high output engines. Roland is right about PI Motorsports expertise because we built from scratch the "Fox Mangusta" which had over 500 horsepower from an aluminum block with EFI and the works. Many modifications were made to the chassis to tolerate the power this car has. Unless you are willing to beef the car up, it may be wise to set your sights for around 300-400 HP max. Dave
