Loss

When I look up the stats for the motor in The Beast I find two numbers.

355 hp and 362 hp.

That's SAE-net.

Digging deeper, it says that the lower number is for the automatic.

All Caprice PPV's are automatics.  The Aussies and Middle East got the manuals.

There's no actual difference in the parts of the engines, so it must be in the "net" part of the specification.

That'd be the torque converter.

It only costs 7 horses?

Color me impressed.  It's not 1970 any more.
