A 2005 PT Cruiser with less than 12,000 miles, and without walking out in the 98 degree temps we are having today, I have no idea of the engine size or HP. Smile

Temporarily my DD is the 74 Westy. 2.0 T4, Kadrons, Raby cam, and a header, maybe 80 hp.

My usual DD is the 71 Kombi. Currently suspected to be a stock 1600DP (we'll know more when I take it apart), probably down to about 30 to 35 hp. Coming soon, a 1679DP with stock intake and a header. 50 hp would be alright.

2006 Infiniti G35, made 307hp stock, probably in the range of maybe 350hps now with the various mods thrown up there. 3.5L V6

And just for a little bragging,
And by daily, this is only once or twice a week depending on if it's cool enough (much more often in the winter)
1969 Chevy, 425 Dynod RWHP. Won't beat some of the VW's here but it will pull 13 flat all day.
