When i used to ask my father inlaw about how much horse power the indian motor cycles he restored had he would say 10 or 12 Brake horse power > now thats seemed awfull low but thats how older engines were rated > this had a actualy calculated based on a physical test > a brake was applied to the engine they spin the engine till it stopped (more or less )late model new engines were calculated with a math formula engine speed being a factor Question is the power wagon rated in brake horse power (actual abilty) or the calculated one just wondering ~ Copey
