Please don't use 'power' as it seems to confuse so many on here. The term
is BHP - brake horse power.


If you want the least confusing measurement of power then use Watts, or
even KW. They are also an SI unit.

If people here don't know how to calculate power from torque and revs,
then they ought to excuse themselves from this discussion and learn.
