#1032, "RE: how much hp can the tranny handle?" In response to In response to 6 Jul-23-03 01:17 PM by XtremeRS
Yeah, figure about 15% drivetrain loss on our manual trans. The only true way to figure it out is to dyno both on an engine dyno, and then on a chassis dyno. If you put down 225 at the wheels, its around 260-270 HP at the crank...I dont know where they came up with 350 CHP.. Oh, and our trannies can take shit loads of power. At least 400 crank HP..I really dont know an exact figure on how much..Hahn ran 11's on it, so that says something..I'd be more concerned with the strenght of the stock axles, and flexplate, before the actual trans.
