So thats 836bhp at the wheels? That will certainly do for a start. ;-)

Well, hp is at the wheels and bhp is at the flywheel, so its 836hp at the wheels and 1017bhp at the flywheel (calculated)!

HAHA you really need to measure in kws or in Australian Killer Wasps lol. But seriously that Monaro is awesome!

And, checking on Wikipedia just now, I'm laughing my head off to realize that originally James Watt invented 'Horsepower' as a marketing tool, to help sell the steam engines he was making! X-D

And that he probably over estimated fis figures too.

Ah, I never twigged the difference, although i have had a couple of cars on rolling roads in the past. It's obvious now as the original bench testing of an engine used a brake on the output shaft. So there's the 'b' right there. ;-)
