Blanket policies on HP Factors

Personally, I think that much of the issues with the AHFS could be fixed by using a common sense approach. For example, If a 396/325 is rated 325 in a '68 Camaro, I can understand why it's rated slightly less, say 318, in a larger, heavier Chevelle. On the other hand, when there is a 20, 30, or 40 horsepower difference on the same engine in two different bodies styles, that shows no common sense at all.
