I'm really pleased with the torque, especially the peak torque rpm. Not too hard to get 650-700 hp out of these big windsors, but to make 560+ lbft at 4200 rpm and match it up with almost 540 hp does make me giggle a little. Smidge over 10:1 for that California swill, sounds really nice, and makes good power.

Wow, that is a nice motor.

How low in the rpm range did the dyno measure? I'd be curious to know what the torque was around 3000.

At 3200, where the pull started, it had 539 lbft.
