HP at the flywheel

How much horsepower does the 305 TPI have at the flywheel? My car is the 190 hp engine but is that at the wheels or the flywheel?

chances are you're running 190 at the flywheel. When dealers advertise HP they use the biggest number they can (flywheel HP) as this attracts unknowing buyers much easier. So you've most likely got 190 HP at the flywheel.

None of the HP ratings you see from car manufacturers is RWHP, they are all measured out of the car on a stand, accessories and exhaust attached (since 197x).
