200 HP? That sounds a little conservative for a car that came with 175 HP stock
in
a couple of models. My old '76 280Z was supposed to have 175 HP stock. At least
that's what it said in the engine compartment. With no restrictions on intake
and
and exhaust I'd think more than 25 extra HP should be available. Just a thought.
