Mr Lancer,
your friend might have been smiling when he told you but that does not mean that he was having a laugh, they are indeed 60/40. You should know that being an MOT man!!!
I think you are doing the confusing here LOL!!!
You should have worded the question correctly. Poor Dave must have thought you were talking about the Horse power output at the wheels as opposed to at the fly wheel.
You are talking about ratio and he is talking about Horses. Well that's what I am reading from where I am standing.
Any way buddy, you have your answer. Thanks for popping round the other day. Your only around the corner, come by and you can learn some more.
