Same as BHP is all important to bar room mechanics.

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.

It's not commonly used in the UK for engine outputs. That is still BHP -
in the same way as we still used MPH. Although PS is creeping in. But they
can all be converted directly.

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.

I've been saying that for weeks. ;-)
