                    SKC has an engine running 185 @ wheels and there is no way I would consider SKC a "road car"

                    A highly tuned engine is not really suitable for road use but the amount you will be driving your Mex Paul I wouldnt worry about it

                    Plus aint Harris engines very peaky and great for The Pod ?

                        Depends on drive train !

                        A straight cut gearbox loses less BHP than a standard gear kit

                        A single piece prop loses less BHP than a 2 piece

                        An LSD loses less BHP

                        etc etc

                        I reckon 15% reduction with the above

                        20% loss with "standard" transmission

                          i would guesstimate about 150@ wheels.
