Discuss!!!!

Everyone has their way of making power, displacement, revs, and other expenses...

Who’s enjoying a payoff for their investment in each of these engine personality types?!

$/HP and $/cc: the almighty Harbor Freight Predator, a copy of the Honda GX160

A theoretical 6.5 HP straight out of the box for just under $100... not bad!

$/hp and hp/L need to be replaced by:

$*lb/hp and hp*mpg

I fail :( (edit, so does kinja, fuck)

But my other two choices are winners in the $/hp $/lb-ft and $/RPM categories

$5.17 per HP, $4.68 per lb-ft

5.45 RPM per $1

$120 cam = 22.5 HP

$105 ignition brain = semi-racing ignition curve. Unlimited RPM (Self governed to 6100).

$120 cam = 18 lbs/ft torque.

Vehicle = Harley 80 CI dresser.

C.C. = Don’t know what that is.

I think he was being sarcastic, because his 'merician Harley is measured in God fearing Cubic Inches, he don't deal with no stinkin' CCs...LOL.

I measure in inches, and gallons. Yeah it’s 1340 CC’s to them damn furriners.

I mean, what makes more sense than 1/8th is followed by 3/16 followed by 1/4. They want to make it consecutive numbers, Jeez :)
