   "In the day" my BEST Paxton blown 289 ( with REAL GT40 heads) made about 535 flywheel HP. This was with a special 12-13 psi ( limited by belt slippage) blower and roller cam. Modern heads are better but I doubt they are 150 hp better than I made , especially with less boost. I call bogus on the HP claim.

I just stumbled across this topic. This is my old car, there is some history missing, and it looks like a lot of work was done to the underside after it left my possession. Does anyone know where it went?

I had a 67 Convertible years ago. I had Powered by Ford in Orlando put on the same blower. I took it for the first drive and though this thing is down on power! He explained to me how there is a cross over point before which the blower uses more power than it produces. That was an expensive lesson for a young lad. I like low down grunt rather than high RPM power for the street. They look neat but not my cup of tea now

I inspected this car at the World Wide Auction in Scottsdale, January, 2018.
IMO, it does not have a GT body, according to the rear frame rails. There are other indications of a past accident.

Found it listed here too.   Not sure if this is an old advertisement or recent.  - https://www.phoenixrestorations.us/my-cars/7.1.2022_qa0h1zb4lj
