    manufacturers measure at the crank.
    At the wheels is usually around 30% less? someone correct me if im wrong.

    110 hp at the crank would work out to be say around 60/70 hp at the wheels.

    Wheel horsepower depends alot on the driveline. In big horsepower motors (around 1000HP and more) the drivelines can chew through 100 hp or more no problems, cause they have to be so tuff. on less powerful cars, the drive line is tailored for more effciency, so therefore would use less than 100 hp. This is as I believe it anyways.

    This engine must be putting out about 170/180 hp.
    Brenton, is it injected or on carbs?
