1) 300 HP... I know it was alot for the time but our cars should be a stage 3 from the factory. 2) Weight ... 3400 ish lbs! Why... I understand and respect how well our cars handle crashes but I am sure it could be just as reliable and safe at 3,100 lbs or less 3) Cooling system yes I agree with you and my list would follow yours if I had 5 pts.
