Well, you can go your own way - I just think you are risking popping your trans once you exceed the 280 ft-lb mark.

Also, the whole crank versus wheel rating thing is BS. The engines make the numbers at the crank, and Dynojets lie. A lot. If I say an engine makes 280 ft-lb, and the trans can only handle 620 ft-lb - those are numbers the way I measure it. Trying to back-calculate to what a Dynojet says is time poorly spent.

Sorry, nothin against you macster - most people don't realize that most manufacturers (particularly those from the far east) lie about their engine performance in order to look better.
