Re: 400-450hp 355 on a budget?

Pete,

Since HP is a function of TQ * RPM / 5252, any increase of torque directly increases HP. But here is the kicker. If you are looking at increases bellow 5252rpm, you will always see more TQ than HP, above 5252rpm, more HP than TQ. HP and TQ always cross at 5252rpm.

Example:

TQ - RPM - HP

300 500 --- 29
300 1000 - 57
300 1500 - 86
300 2000 114
300 2500 143
300 3000 171
300 3500 200
300 4000 228
300 4500 257
300 5000 286
300 5252 300
300 5500 314
300 6000 343
300 6500 371
300 7000 400
300 7500 428
300 8000 457
