Weight-Power Ratio?
Hi..

Could it be possible to have a Weight-Power ratio on
2 Kg to 1 HP ??

What does a FD weigh?

Possible. Don't know the exact weight of an FD but its over 1300kgs, so you would need the thick end of 700 HP.

My 13B engined westfield is around 540kg, so its a bit easier for me :-)

I would say......

Most in Europe run between 300hp/400hp and a few under 500hp
