Do you know which Offenhauser intake manifold? Somewhere in the library,
I have an old Peterson publication that covers a Mangusta 302 build up and
dyno test by Jery Spotts. The article said the stock Mangusta engines had
1 point lower compression than equivalent U.S. 4 barrel 302's. On the dyno,
the stock Mangusta detailed in the article put down only 110 HP at the wheels.
Weak!
I'm told there was a Sports Car Graphic series on how to use Ford performance
bits to put more go in the 'Goose. If any one has a copy, I much appreciate
it.
