    Give me some directions to Horsepower TV.
     
  7. Spike TV (Cable). At one time it was "The Nashville Network" but then someone gave it a shot of testosterone.

    Joe Abbins latest blower run does 310 hp from a 276 flatty.

    That's certainly strong! Dave Tatom is cranking out just a tad over 400 hp with 276 cid in his XF/BSTR motor, but that's with a Whipple. Mike

    yeah, quite a sharp little 34 coupe!!! they featured.....well ****, it just slipped my mind......maybe it was motor city flatheads....they guy that makes just about anything for flattys.....they showed some flow testing (nothing to specific) and some other stuff....running 8psi on the blower.....sure was a nice looking flatty.....

    uh, AV8, it's on channel 38 here on adelphia and i think it's 325 on direct tv....at least it is here...

    mainly the wrong facts were the production dates....they claimed 35-52.......but that's not the host's fault....no big deal though and just some other stero types about the flatty......they did dispell some too, though!

    horsepower and flatheads is nearly and oxy***** really:D

    I know I will never get to see this series as it might make it to cable here, but sounds like it was more interesting than the general ****e they dish up on TV.
