What engines can you think of that had a very low specific output for the time they were produced? I'm thinking engines like the Iron Duke...
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

Do you know what they all have in comon? They all american….
I think mostly VW concern made these type of engines. Golf III GTI was a bad joke with its 2.0 114 HP engine, also my old SEAT Ibiza had a 1.4 60 HP engine and it did 0-100 km/h in 15 seconds. Ridiculous, vut at least the MPG was great and engine was reliable.
19 out of 30 … NOT BAD for a non american dude (i admit most of it was luck but still shiiiiet)
‘75 Stingray
lousy man
1976 Ford Mustang II: the 4 cyl only put 92 hp but the hefty 302 V8 put out a whopping 134hp with a 0-60 in an astonishing 9.8 sec. and a quarter mile in a sweltering 17.5 sec. Good job Ford
My 50cc scooter a mighty 2kw now with mods around 8kw haha
mercedes w123 200d euro spec 55bhp and 300d 80bhp
bugatti type 13 30 bhp
I drive a 300d :(
For everyone commenting American engines in the 80s, You do know that there was nothing they could physically do because of regulations?
The newest viper. With the largest production engine in the world I have no clue why it’s making just 600 something bhp with smaller motors making more.
Because N/A, that’s why (yes, there’s replacement for displacement)
