Series II Horsepower?
Was there a difference in power in the Series II motor between certain years? If so what were they. Thanks.

Well, I was aware of the fact that the 1995 SE was the lightest, but I have the Supercharger and the HD tranny, not to mention the dual outlet exhaust. On the other hand, the "soft ride" suspension probably doesn't weigh as much as the FE3, and without all the other SSE/SSEi ground effects and goodies, I still think it is lighter than other SC'd '95'*. I just wish I had hard data.
And yes, these things do run like scared rabbits from hunting dogs! That is one of the reasons I have such a bad traction problem. I can't lay into the accelerator very hard at all or it will spin my wheels :? It is very difficult to get it to hook up. If I lay into it from a stand still, it will shift into second while spinning. That can't be good for the 4T60E-HD. I am hoping that Ty or Hector will come out with a good shift kit for the 60E, and maybe later I will look into a LSD--if my tranny lasts that long
