<x-flowed>>> I was just looking at my car's birth certificate and
never noticed that it actually says 54bhp. So even that figure is different than the owner's manual. Weird.That's the "official" HP number. Along with 40kW, that's the value that's onthe microfilm. It's probably just DIN HP and not so weird after all.
Yep, that's the DIN HP number. the single-carb 1500 engines had 33 kw/45 bhp (DIN) and anything after that had 40 kw/54 bhp (DIN).
