Thanks. I understand your explanation.....and agree with it. If the torque "has nowhere to go" it will make a path.......through broken parts. But to say that 300 LB FT is "anemic" is a blanket statement, no? 300 LB FT is "pretty good" for instance, for a slant 6.

So you mean 300 itself is anemic? It depends. For some engines it may be a very good number. For a 500 inch engine even in a mild state of tune, 300 would be an anemic number.

I was using that number because that’s what was thrown out there and for 99% of what gets lit around here, 300 would be a pretty low torque number.
