Thank you Merle. I just researched A.M.A HP (a term i wasn't familiar with) and from what I can see there is no relation between A.M.A. and true HP.
Hudson Terraplane defined A.M.A. as.....
"A mathematical formula used for taxation in some states and involving only the bore and number of cylinders. It ignores stroke, compression, ignition, valves, cooling or other vital factors of engine efficiency which affect actual horsepower."
Would you know what the true HP of the 228 is?
Hello all. I'm a new owner of a 1953 Dodge one ton and am in the process of ordering a new data plate for the truck.
It is Canadian built and according to the serial number it is a DH-2 126" wheelbase with a 228 ci engine.
On the data plate there are spaces for maximum weight and horsepower.
Can anyone tell me what the gvwr and horsepower would be for this truck?
Thank you very much for any help offered.
