Depends on where you are measuring it.... HP is just torque and time, and gear ratio certainly changes torque.... at the wheels.

yup and it reduces speed at a 1:1 rate. no such thing as a perpetual motion machine

I would imagine most measure it to the wheels, at least in the hot rod shows I watch on TV.

Not yet... just give me a little more time. :victory:

I see your point, but his statement was still false.
