I have a 1900 small backup engine in my car now with E130x1.25s and 42x37 full port heads with 48s and 37 vents and 8.5+1 comp and 1 5/8 headers and 3.75x2.36x1.56x1.09x4.12RP in a stock 67 bug. I figure 95hp and feel super slow compared to my big engine. So do you guys think it could keep up or beat those super loud muffler honda and toyotas and cars like that. Cuz if I stay cruising and one come up to me at a light and throw me a rev, I can throw one back. If not, then I can play deff ear.
