Brougham

Very cool! But deleting the emissions stuff wouldnโ€™t get you much. The problems are more related to the low compression ratio, very conservative cam and restrictive exhaust. Fixing those is where the real gains would come from with a car like that. Could get it from the anemic 190HP of its era (assuming itโ€™s not the new-for-1975 Bendix EFI version that gave you 215HP) to maybe 250HP or so without risking anything. But itโ€™s gonna reduce that glorious 11mpg youโ€™d get even more, to probably around 9mpg or so.

Iโ€™d never want to own it, but I love that 5,300 pound absurd car.
