That was the 1954-1960 2.5L formula. Earlier cars with the pre-war 4.5L formula made up to 450hp.
Lowering the fuel mixture to 15:1, compression is down to 6.7:1, the cam profile is down to 11, having cast pistons and conrods, the truck is now making 125hp and 227Lb-Ft. It’s $200 cheaper and gets 2 more mpg. It’s now on par with that flathead
Performance Trim level:
The B2 Turbo sprouts a Turbocharger out the 1.6 inline 4, now making 296hp @ 7600rpm and 213 ft/lbs @ 6900 with a 8,100rpm redline. Although being heavier at 2,735lbs, 0-60 comes in 5.0secs and a quarter mile time of 13.38 @ 105mph. top speed is 139mph, while getting 14.6 mpg. Around the Airfield the time is 1:23:57 on sport compound tires. This Fun Premium car can be yours for $18,400.
The B3-800 gets an upgrade to the 2.5l V6 Sport, with 241hp @ 7,400rpm and 200 ft/lbs @ 5,000 with a 7,500 rpm redline. Having a 6-speed Sequential gearbox, 0-60 is in 5.9, and the quarter mile time is 14.22 @ 101mph. being 2,955lbs, it receives a respectable time around the airfield; 1:25:47. getting 17.9mpg, and having the most equipment out of the 3, it will cost you $22,200.
Who thought it was a good idea to put 431hp into a FWD car? Blanton Motors, with the B6 GTC, also known as “The Burnout Machine”. Strapping 2 turbos to the beefed up 3.8l V6 made it have 431hp @ 6500 and 389 ft/lbs @ 4500, with a 6500rpm redline. Blanton Motors did consider converting the car to AWD, however, this would’ve made the car worse in every way except drivability (which would’ve increased half a point). Top speed was 164mph, 0-60 was in 6.1, and the quarter mile was 13.74 @ 115mph. being 3,037lbs and getting 15mpg, this tire shredder would cost you $19,300 new. And having semi-slick tires to help keep you from plowing every corner, the Airfield time was 1:21.82.

I wouldn’t be surprised if B6 GTC was the fastest FWD car in Automation in terms of the track time

1954 Blanton Longtail:
The Blanton Longtail Cruiser was among the more popular “led sleds”, taking a slightly updated version of the 280Ci V8 from the B8100, with a 2-barrel carb, now making 151hp @ 3700 and 236 ft/lbs @ 3,200. This trim level saw MacPherson struts up front, and a semi-trailing arm in the rear. It also had a standard AM radio, weighed 3,298lbs, and got 14.9mpg. With 6.8:1 compression and a 2-speed automatic, 0-60 was in 18.7, quarter mile was 22.2 @ 69mph, and a top speed of 105mph. This behemoth would be yours for $10,200.
The Longtail Wayfair was the higher trim level option, with an extra carburetor on the 280 and upping the compression to 9.4:1, this juggernaut produced 171hp and 261 ft/lbs. Having more equipment, like a premium AM radio, and bucket seats. Top Speed is up to 114mph, mileage was down to 12.5, this trim cost you $11,700. This vehicle gained a reputation with mafia types, not only for being able to take several hard knocks, but with 135mm tires, could create a smokescreen at will.

2006 Blanton Leviathan:
Following the Dodge Charger and Pontiac GTO, the Leviathan was Blanton Motor’s step into the modern muscle car era, and revitalized their racing program, which before shut down in 1994. With the entry model GT having a new small block 397ci V8 developed from the popular small block 280. This variant made 333hp @ 5200rpm and 389 ft/lbs @ 2700rpm. Having a 6 speed manual transmission, and weighing 3,771lbs, the Leviathan GT got 18.5mpg, 0-60 in 5.8s, and the quarter mile took 13.98 @ 105mph. Also having sport compound tires and sport tuned suspension, this beast ran some fairly decent lap times. You could buy it new for $15,200.
Airfield:
Blanton Racing Technology, or BRT, developed the Leviathan GT2, which ran in both the 24hrs of Le Mans, and ALMS. However, it’s debut was bittersweet, as it qualified last, by almost a full 2 seconds. This did not discourage the team, because the Leviathan proved to be reliable, and made fewer pit stops due to lower fuel consumption, it finished 6th in class and 23rd overall. It has a race tuned 397 that produced 664hp @ 7500rpm and 496 ft/lbs @ 6,400rpm with 13.6:1 compression and 13.2:1 fuel mixture. After losing some weight, the Leviathan continued to race in the GT2 class until 2008, when BRT developed the GT3 version, which is racing till this day.
The Leviathan GT3 proved to be a more potent race car. Having 80 less horsepower at 584, the GT3 was much lighter, and with a regeared transmission, the GT3 was actually barely faster than the GT2, setting nearly identical qualifying time at Le Mans. However, the GT3 saw a lot more action, participating in not only Le Mans, but also Daytona, FOS, and 24hrs of the Nurburgring. Racking up multiple class wins over the years, BRT, and some other teams run Leviathan GT3’s to this day.

1958 Blanton Runaround:
The Blanton Runaround Sprint was a simple utility van, built for the average handy man. It was given a 335ci small block V8 that produces 146hp @ 3500rpm and 278 ft/lbs. It was rated with 71 practicality and 57.3 Utility, making it an ideal delivery vehicle. With a 3 on the tree, thie 2,908lb hauler got 16.6mpg, reached 107mph, and 0-60 was in 12.3. You could pick one up for $9,200
The Runaround Marathon quickly became a hippie van, and shuttle vehicle. Equipped with a Premium AM Radio, 2-speed Automatic, Power Steering, and the same 335 that’s in the Sprint. Also having seating for 9, the Marathon weighed 3,235lbs and had 15.2mpg, making it a competent Family Utility for $9,800

1961 Blanton GT6000:
This time, it’s another economical sports car! This is what Blanton Motors is known for, and it definitely didn’t disappoint. This little 2 seater has a newer version of the B6000’s 215ci making slightly less power in favor of fuel milage at 127hp @ 4000rpm and 191 ft/lbs @ 2300rpm. getting 24.4mpg, this 2082lb car still manages 0-60 in 9.5 and a quarter mile time of 17.34 @ 86 mph. The 4-speed allowed it to reach a top speed of 117mph. But the big selling point was that it was fun, being very easy to chuck around any course with sport compound tires. This Budget Pony car, including the manually operated pop-up headlamps, can be yours for $7700.

1962 Blanton Skipper:
The Skipper is basically just a commuter car, much like the Ford Falcon and Chevy Nova at the time. It boasted an uprated 335ci V8 with 164hp @ 3700rpm and 289 ft/lbs @ 1600rpm. Being 2721lbs, and with a 3-speed automatic, it received 19.5mpg. The vehicle has bucket seats up front, and a Standard AM radio. Top Speed is 117mph, 0-60 was in 10.6, and the quarter mile was in 17.94 @ 83mph. You can buy the Skipper in either the Coupe or Wagon variants for $9,100.

1965 B600:
B620:
Blanton motor’s second attempt at a full-size V8, with some added flare. The B600 was meant for American highways, with an even larger small block at 352ci. Moving up to 204hp @ 3,900rpm and 304 ft/lbs @ 2,000rpm. It has a 3-speed automatic with a top speed of 134mph, and got 16.1mpg. 0-60 was in 11.2 sec and the quarter mile was in 18.06 @ 85mph. This classic cruiser can be yours for $10,900
B650 GS:
This variant has a bit more performence, and these days consided a muscle car. The 352 gets uprated, with higher compression, fuel mixture, and forged pistons, it now produces 315hp @ 4900 and 377 ft/lbs @ 4300. Through a 4-speed manual, 0-60 came in 9.3 and the quarter mile was in 16.74 @ 95mph. Fuel consumption was fairly average at 10.3mpg. Top Speed was quite good at 158mph, not that you’d want to reach that number. This optioned yacht can be yours for $12,200

1966 Chaser:
The base model of the Chaser had a 3.0L inline 6 that produced 94hp @ 3,800rpm and 153 ft/lbs @ 1800rpm. With a 2-speed automatic, this vehicle got people to where people wanted to go, and nothing more. the vehicle was quite light since it weighed 2,510lbs and it got 19.9mpg. speed wise, you needed a calendar, with a top speed of 84mph, 0-60 in 17.3s and the quarter mile was in 21 seconds at 70mph. The car is quite comfortable, and will cost you $11,200
Chaser Felon:
This is Blanton Motor’s bid into the muscle car wars. With a 438ci Big Block V8 that produces 375 hp @ 4100rpm and 496 ft/lbs @ 3900rpm, it could contend with the rest of them. 0-60 was in 8.3 and the quarter mile was done in a respectable 15.78 @ 102mph. This was a true hot rod with a 4 speed manual. It weighed a bit more with that large chunk of iron up front at 3,531lbs. This wasn’t no gas sipper either, getting 8.9mpg. top speed was 140mph and you can pick up this beast for $14,000.
BRT Chaser Trans Am Race Car:
When BRT was established in 1967, this is the car they debuted with. This fire breather has a 397 small block V8 tuned with racing DCOE carburetors and forged pistons. With 499 hp @ 5,900rpm and 471 ft/lbs @ 4,900rpm, it was quite competitive. It was also light at 2,531lbs, 0-60 was in 5.1sec and the quarter mile was done in 12.78 @ 125mph. quite a few of these cars raced from 1967 to 1974, when the Chaser ended production. You’d be lucky to find one at action for at least $122,000.

@szafirowy01 It’s not 
I had the insane idea of building a hatch over 100k with crazy materials, a transversely mounted 2.2L crossplane V8 and all the quality sliders up to 15. The thing did the quarter mile in 11 something and beat a Pagani Huayra around the Top Gear Test Track at something like 1:13.81. The B6 is production tho, and mine isn’t.
B1Z:
The B1Z is quite literally the definition of a small sports car, it’s all about the fun. Many cars these cars focus too much on lap times, that their technology gets in the way of a good time. The B1Z gets rid of that computer non-sense to give you the enjoyment of a drive. The chassis is made of AHS steel, with double wishbone suspension, and a partial aluminum body. The 1.3l V6 motor is mounted longitudinally in the rear. This tiny engine is made from AlSi, and is DOHC, with 12 valves. It has a forged crank, H-beam connecting rods, and hypereutectic pistons. The 1.3 makes 8:1 compression, and has 30 camshaft profile. This V6 also has 2 46mm journal bearing turbos making 16.7psi, with a medium air intercooler. Fuel is delivered through twin multipoint EFI. Exhaust is 1 inch dual, through a high flow 3 way cat, and no mufflers! This high revving light weight makes 118hp @ 5900rpm and 105 ft/lbs @ 5900rpm with an 8,000rpm redline. The power is fed through a 6-speed manual and a viscous LSD diff. to the rear wheels. The car sits on 17" Alloy wheels and 225mm semi-slick tires. It has vented discs, 4 piston 225mm up front, and 2 piston 185mm in the rear. Underneath is a semi-clad undertray, with Active Sport springs, and semi-active dampers.
Now for some usless numbers:

Ah perfect, more light sports cars coming out. I have one myself and I’m eager to see what folks here can come up with. Though mine is a 2011 model.
Although its a bit heavy isn’t it for a car like that?
Actually no, the Alfa 4C is 30lbs heavier than this B1Z
