Someone should be able to look this up in either the factory manual, haynes, or something.
I'm out of town and can't look it up.

It's not an issue of bench racing. I'm not trying to inflate numbers as what's at the wheels is all that matters. I was just pointing out that the "crank" numbers on the dyno were guesses (and bad ones at that).
