Does anybody know of an easy way of converting grams/Kw Hours to pounds/ HP hour?

That would be:

(xx gm/Kw-hr)(1 lb/454 gm)(.746 Kw/1 hp)

overall:  1gm/Kw-hr  =  .00164 lb/hp-hr

Aubrey- 

286 times .00164 looks about right. Best BSFC for the Lemans P-port engine
is therefore .469. About what Tracy Crook is measuring.

Thanks a bunch Aubrey!
