Thread-topic: HP co-operative
Hello,

Well, I did a couple of run and I got a disappointing result of 45HP.
Taking into account a 30% lost through the drive train, this gives 64HP
at the flywheel!
I do not know why it is so low... Anyone has any idea of what I should
try to get it up? I have a Webber carburettor on a completely stock
un-rebuild engine...

I will try to get a couple of more runs after some carb tweaking next
Saturday morning and then I will send the G-Teck to Mike
Mjsprite@aol.com (please send me your mail address privately).

Glen, can you please help complete that data for your car? Also, can you
tell me how in hell you managed to get the car so light?
