As torque and hp curves intersect at 5250 rpm, it seems strange that the hp and torque values are so far apart at only 5200 rpm. Something screwy has happened here. Either the hp is closer to 385 hp or the torque is closer to 290 hp. I'll bet it's the 385 hp number that's more accurate. I have a 393 windsor that's fairly mild making 360 hp at the rear wheels. Look at the hp and torque curves again and check the numbers on it.
