It will be a turbo EFI engine. In street trim we hope to make an honest 350hp. I know, I know, you asked about torque not hp but I don't have those figures yet . Still on the dyno trying to work through tuning issues.

At cruising speed (70mph), I would like to see 2800-3K rpm but that may not be realistic and also I am not that anxious to do top speed runs in a bus even though I have made many improvements to the handling (as much as you can to a brick ) so seeing 100+mph would be very rare and not a big requirement. I really like the 0-60 excitement best.

If I'm gonna convert to a better trans, I would rather step-up in the begining and do it right. Then be prepared for whatever beast of an engine I might evolve to down the road.
