Re: Triumph TR6 on the dyno [long]

Hello Shane,
I guess that 91hp for a tired stock motor, I'm clueless here.  But when using 
a chassis dyno you suffer about a 15%-25% power loss due to the drivetrain 
plus between 1% to 3% loss due to tire slippage on the roller.  The SAE came 
up with guidelines to prevent manufacturers from being creative on the dyno 
and what you see today is realistic to what you actually get.  Taking in the 
losses suffered by using a chassis dyno, I put your power at the flywheel 
somewhere around 113hp give or take a few.  Sounds good to me for a tired old 
6.
