You asked for highest BHP and torque and now you dont want heavily modded cars Make your mind up fella, or are you just asking whats easy to be safely achieved in a classic?

OK now are you asking what the highest safe bhp is you can get from one of those? If you are then without changing turbo's I think its around 300. If your asking what you can get by doing anything, the sky is the limit.
