Reply to "ZF Losses"

I wish it was only a 15hp loss? You can reduce the loss some by using full synthetic lube. It reduces the drag on the gears. That's somewhere between 5 to 7 hp.

75hp loss is not really a big power train loss at all.

It's been pretty much documented on a dyno.

You would have to go to something like a VW Bug transaxle to get the loses that low.

I've seen the Corvair take the SB Chevy without breaking with the Crown Corveight kit. I can't believe the VW could.
