The torque figure of the HO is very dissapointing...... a supercharged 5.0 should be a torque monster more than anything else...

215kw wouldn't be a problem if it had 500+Nm

I wonder if the power figures are actually typos. There were 6cyl versions of the Moffat HO as well and I bet those are the power figures for that. 440Nm for a forced 5L doesn't sound right, they make 388Nm stock.

I thought I read in a mag I have the V8 made 235kw, I will have to investigate.

Yeah, 440nm for a blown V8 is a bit limp...

how many mags are correct - honestly

However, A 185KW HSV Commodore was big news back then, this is approaching 15 years old remember.
Don't compare it with todays monsters

Also those mags are always pretty biased.

I have in a ford mag the amho with 235 kw at fly and put down a 14.6 at the geelong sprints a track not too conducive to getting good numbers... so the mag says.

Also found half of that article clipped and cut up in a wheels mag so.... yeah..
