Max Horse power: 130 @ 5500 rpm

Max Torque: 153 ft LB @ 2750 rpm
Those numbers are wrong. I can take a pic of the DMC shop manual for you.



I've seen the Delorean's numbers so mis-quoted over and over. The first site I found had the Delorean rated at 88 hp. [/quote]

he was only off by 11hp. The delorean ran like 16.5 1/4 miles IIRC.

I was just quoting delorean.com, they have a downloadable brochure about the car in pdf format with the specifications, those power/tq numbers are from there. Along with the weight.

Great Scott!!!



Yeah i saw one of those a yaer or so ago. It drove past me, what a beautiful sight. You could even see the flux capacitator in the backseat.



No but seriously i really did see one. Nice to actually see one in real life. Much smaller car than i thought off the movie but then again i guess everything just looks bigger on tv.
