There is a well know impact of additional CP's known as the "MP effect".
Going from 1 to 2 engines does not get you twice as much horsepower.
Only 1.9 times as much.
In the early days 360/65 AP&  305/65 MP, the effect was only 1.7 times.

Specifically, if you look at z196 machines http://tech-news.com/publib/pl2817.html you'll see the following LSPR ratios:

Modl Ratio Delta
701  2.15   N/A
702  4.06   1.91
703  5.92   1.86
704  7.72   1.80
705  9.47   1.75
706  11.17  1.70
707  12.82  1.65
and so on...
