While done on different runs, the max horsepower (SAE) at the wheel was 291.6 and the maximum torque (lb/ft) was 382.4 measured at the wheel. Now, if you presume 12% transmission power losses that would calculate to 331 HP and 434.5 torque. If I were to have changed to intake from the naturally aspirated one that I installed which tends to produce more torque, then the horsepower number would probably have come up some and torque down.
