OOPS

I used the wrong value for the density of diesel / Jet-A. Is should be 6.3 to 7.0 Lbs/Gal  giving  a BSFC of 0.72 Lbs/ HpHr for my "guesstimate" based on the claims of a salesman. I suspect the true BSFC is at least 1.0 based on comparable engines built by aerospace companies with large R&D budgets.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.

I would like to thank Mike for pointing out my "Brain Fart".  I hate inflated claims, even my own.
