I'm not talking about pulley ratios, cooking engines, and dry sump pumps. I like to see functional carb linkages that don't cost 42 rear wheel horsepower, but I'm not going to whine about it.

I am, however, talking about horsepower loss from engine dyno to chassis dyno. When one chassis dyno reads 10-12% lower than another, and one engine dyno reads 5% lower than another, it's hard to have a standard.
