Update: Stripping section now done.
Feel free to suggest any other information that would be useful in here, I was thinking of putting in about Shorter Gearboxes etc, but that's generally more to do with transmission than power.
Anyway, happy to help - hope it's not too hard to understand some of the more technical bits.

Great Post... something everyone thinks was needed.
with regards to the credits.. source it properly with a link to the page taken from, and a date (ie todays) and credit the Writer and you can source away if my knowledge serves me correctly.
