Does your engine builder know what the h.p. gains of all that he's going to do will be? The average parasitic h.p. loss through the drivetrain is around 15%. If you're looking for 500 h.p. at the wheels, you need to aim for at least 588 h.p. at the flywheel (500รท.85=588.24). That's going to be a heavy build.

 

he promised 470 not at the wheels but competition is tuff around here kb cobra clubs i want to put a hurting on
