Laura,
I've been doing some calculations and here is what I have come up with:
1. The 1500 is roughly 91 cubic inches.
2. There is an old Hot Rodder rule of thumb that says,
"1 hp/ci=1 hot engine"
3. If your Spit has a 1500 engine with 125 hp, the ratio is about
1.37 hp/ci.
4. Therefore: Nigel must be as real screamer.
(Unless of course your mechanic is blowing smoke)
