Estimating Horsepower
I read that horsepower can be calculated by multiplying (MEP X Stroke Length X Surface Area of the Bore X Number of Power Strokes) and dividing by 33,000. In the real world, how do you take that power equation and estimate the power various cylinder head/valve spring/camshaft combinations produce on a given engine? How is horsepower estimated in engine mod planning?
Thanks!
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
