drivetrain loss

[Wittkid240]

Was curious as to what percentage of usable power is eaten up by drive train loss. I know the engine is 155 hp but if anyone knows the drivetraine loss id appreciate it

My guess is 22% on rear wheel drive stock drivetrain. with a real good clutch is should go lower.

thanks, was just trying to calculate a few things and was curious about different clutches and how they affect the loss. center force dual friction and clutches similar

Typically, 15 - 20% is the range of drivetrain loss for most cars. SCC Magazine dyno'd a stock 240 at 127 HP which puts it at about 18%. But we can not confirm what the actual crank dyno is either, so we can't be sure with any real certainty.
