I've got some ancient stuff,might be some small-block Chevy stuff in there.I'll look.If we new the van's road load horsepower,and driveline efficiency,knowing the mpg,we could reverse-engineer for the bsfc.I know that Hucho has some general bsfc maps in his book.They say,that given a few parameters,that other engines can be superimposed onto these maps.I have little experience with such things.Too bad the car makers don't publish stuff like this.Kinda like buying a laptop with no data for for the CPU.
