If you say so chief. 600ft/lbs of advertised torque through O/D reduces all that torque to 414 ft/lbs of torque to the drive shaft. That's not a whole lot more than the newer small block gassers are putting out through direct drive. You're not fooling me. Anyone who knows anything about horsepower requirements knows you're not pulling 19k lbs up a 12% grade 58mph at 2000rpm for a mere 228hp. It ain't happening. My thinks you exaggerate a lot. I've been towing long enough to know better.
