Thats 99 hp and 184 lb-ft at the flywheel. The 250 was a very strong animal low down, but was lucky to put more than 65 hp to the rear wheels.

RPM____RWHP_____RWLB-FT
4500____63.0_____73.4
4000____79.0_____103.7
3500____84.0_____125.9
3000____75.9_____132.9
2500____64.9_____136.4

123 bhp @ 3700 rpm at the flywheel
212 lb-ft @ 2400 rpm at the flywheel
9.0:1, 1-bbl, 4089 cc.
BW 35 Automatic, 2.92:1 diff
Tare weight 3395 pounds. Test weight approx 3800 lb's
Average Imperal mpg was 18.6 mpg.
The Falcon XC 4.1, in good tune, gave 18.6 sec 1/4 mile
