Thanks Joseph!

Was trying to figure horsepower from top speed in the quarter-mile and was missing this crucial information to complete the formula!

FYI-The formula looks like this:

hp=(mph divided by 234)to the power of 3 x weight

When I went for the emissions test, they gave me a print out at the end that had the weight on there. It was a little over 3300 if I recall correctly.

My 87 Coupe has a sticker in the driver's side door, near the lock, that says the car's weight is 3,766 pounds If this is true, GM should have made these cars with a 300 hp engine
