I’m not just quite sure why you quoted me and then write what you wrote. As if I don’t believe what you wrote perhaps. Are you trying to convince me of something? I’m not sure where we are at here.
The one thing I don’t know is the combination of parts. So to say, it was down 25hp is a blind blanket and misleading statement without knowing the combination.
25hp might be a lot of power when going up from 245hp but you’ll never notice it on a 600hp engine. Feeling it in the seat of the pants is a wide and varied as well a relative term and statement.
