Just been reading SGirl's stuff about "Griff 500 transformed" and noted that most people seem to think that any 500 engine putting out over 300bhp is very good and seemingly quite rare.

I'm going to be buying my first Griff 500 soon and thought that bhp was nearer 320 with torque being around 320lbs/ft? It's even stated on this website as having 340bhp and 350lbs/ft which would be nice!!!

Having not ever been in one (unfortunately) is it a case of power fading after a few years? If this does happen does it affect the torque as well as this has more effect on the day to day performance after all?

I'm a bit lost on this one...

Cheers

A 500bhp Griff now that would be something!!! Can see the possible misinterprtation of the title though so apologies to anyone who expects to be amazed!

Glad to hear the perrformance figures aren't porky pies though because yes, that is all that matters!!

phew.
