horsepower claims vary depending on who you talk to, it is a loss of crank driven weight so from an engineering standpoint, it is worth 2.8 horse per pound and considering that the shafts spin at twice the speed of the crank, it should be worth something. If you decide to do it, maybe it would be cool to dyno the car first then after so the debate could be settled with some numbers. if you do it with the engine in the car, make sure there are no small children around, they shouldn't hear the things that will be flying from your mouth. The reasons stated above are the best reasons to do this by far, it is a smart move for reliability.
