Message: [QUOTE="Cold Roller, post: 820552, member: 9551"] You should be the one providing the explanation! On a dyno, torque is the force measured as work completed to spin the mass, and HP is calculated from it as the time and RPM are factored in. HP was a common term derived in 1702 to relate work/time of a steam engine to what everyone could understand - what horses could do. So, peak torque is somewhat BS when posted, unless it is sustained for a period of time. If a truck hits 1000 lb-ft but settles at 800 and decreases gradually over the RPM range to to 600 lb-ft, the usable TQ is not 1000, but that would be the post on the forum! The other side to your argument was probably bestowing the virtue of a heavy mass as the king of torque, not a truck producing a spike as I described. The flatter the dyno chart for torque, the better the quality of the power. [/QUOTE]
