Three engines with incorrect Hp reduction are
287hp x2.25%= 6.4575 rounded up to 7 hp. 287 -7 = 280 hp not the 279 hp showed.
255hp x 2.25% = 5.7375 hp rounded up to 6hp. 255 -6 =249 hp not the 245hp showed.
207hp x 2.25% = 4.6575 Hp rounded up to 5hp. 207- 5 = 202 hp not the 201 showed.
Two out of the three mistakes could be typos but not the reduction of 10 hp on the 255 hp engine with a reduction of ten hp
Like my friend Al would say “ It doesn’t cost a thing to pay attention “
A 10 hp reduction on the 255 hp engine is 3.91% reduction the largest reduction listed is 2.25%,
go figure !

How do you get a decrease in hp when the old hp is higher than factory hp on two combo's listed?
