Thepower per cubic inch is about right, nothing wrong with that.
What sets up the red flag is the weight to cubic inch number.
101 lbs
156 cubic inch
and lets not forget at least 8-10 lbs of coolant. Another 10 pounds for
the radiator and 10-15 for the starter and 5 for the alternator. Lets see
that leaves about 60 to 65 lbs for a barebones 156 cubic inch engine. I
have a nice bridge I'll sale you for a cool million;-)
