Message	His logic was very poor. He would never pass math class at my middle school. In his book, he states that 1/3 of the total heat produced by an engine leaves the engine through the exhaust, 1/3 leaves the engine through the cooling system, and 1/3 gets used towards making power, through the crankshaft. Therefore a 200 hp engine will have about 70 hp leaving through the exhaust. Does anyone else see the flaw in his math?
