The February 2011 issue of Super Chevy Magazine had a 1 page feature of a chassis dyno test for a bone stock restored show quality 57. Two other muscle car era Chevys were also covered. So what can a Creame Puff 283CID/ 245HP hydraulic power pack engine do at the rear wheels? This one did 158hp at 4600rpm through the cast iron powerglide eventually to the white wall tires. Pretty cool!
