OK, i love the 4.3 and all, but i think the 298.5 tq was a typo. The 152.8 also seems a little low. I would think it would be more in the mid 160's-170's.

Please post up the dyno or set me strait.

most likely thats it. The stock specs are 200hp/260tq. And i dont think there as under-rated as the 4.8/5.3's.

They is what they is. lol

ill go by the shop tommrow if i get time tommrow i know the horsepower is rite but they were having to do second gear pulls on the dyno due to the speed limiter so the torque was showing 347 and they said it was about 30% less than that so it would be 242 did my math wrong earlier but when iget the truck tuned and the speed limiter gone ill check it again and yeah i was kind of dissapointed with the HP it was hot and but still i have a ported throttle body and underdrives on it and opened air box

hmm, I still think the torque is a bit high, isn't there a 20% drivetrain loss? and if so then if the engine is rated at 260tq it'd be around 208rwtq. correct me if I'm wrong.

I dont think 242rwtq is out of the question for a 4.3. They are pretty well known for awsome TQ.
