Dyno Results
Tests were conducted on a Dynojet 248 chassis dynamometer equipped with a wide-band O2 sensor. All horsepower and torque readings were converted back to sae. Average horsepower and torque were taken from 4,100-6,900 rpm. Since the TA was equipped with a Turbo 400 automatic transmission and a 3,400-stall Vigilante torque converter, the car was pulled in Third gear. Rather than simply romping on it, which caused the car to downshift into Second (and invalidate the dyno pull), the throttle was eased down until just over 3,400 rpm and then mashed to the gunwales.
