Default 289 horsepower rating?

does anybody know for a fact what the stock hp is for a 67 289 2V, with a 3 spd manual? My friend and I are having this argument, and he thinks that a stock 289 2V from 67 comes with about 120-130 rwhp. I can't believe that it could be that low. And I know that Ford exaggerated their horsepower ratings back in the 60's so we don't know what to believe...

There is a website www.classicponycars.com that says it comes with 200 hp stock, but who knows.
