How big is/are the biggest engines in a Pantera? I have seen plenty of 408s and 427s and what kind of RWHP do they have?

Well Here's 780 RWHP, with a 20% parasitic drive train lose, that's an eyelash away from 1,000hp at the flywheel...Mark

Don't forget about PCNC member Darryl Johnson's 542 cu.in. big block Pantera. I don't know the horsepower, but it's big (and loud)!
Am I the only person that CRINGES thinking about the piston thrust side wall wear on a motor who's original displacement WAS 351 & is now 180CI+++ LARGER???!!..Mark

They are all stroked big blocks so it's not as bad as it sounds.
These motors are nuts! I love it! I've got a 459 inch stroked and poked Dart small block in Bad Kitty, but I'm a liter shy of some of the big blocks.
Thanks for the clarification, I was under the impression the engines were 351 Clevelands...Markquote:Originally posted by 8pack:quote:Originally posted by 1Rocketship:
