Question about torque & HP

I went to a dyno run on Saturday &amp; had a great time...thanks guys. Here's my question, I ran a 185 HP &amp; 315 ft lbs torque at the rear wheels from a stock auto. Is this what I should expect? I thought it would pull in the 220 range &amp; 350 torque. Is this normal or might I have a problem ??? Thanks for you input. <br><br> Jerry

Re:Question about torque & HP

I did my first Dyno run Saturday as well<br><br>2002 4x4 auto transmission with 3.54 rear end.<br><br>I got a 205.6 HP, no torque due to no RPM hookup.<br><br>Totally stock engine and transmission.<br><br>Only changes I have done that would affect readings are my missing muffler (replaced with length of 3inch pipe, kept resonator and rest of stock exhaust) and my 34.75 inch tires.<br><br>Was told that I am doing very well for a stock truck, and that most other stockers have gotten around 170-180 hp.<br><br>I think you're right where you should be, maybe a little better<br><br><br>phox

Re:Question about torque & HP

Don't you loose about 20 % of Power &amp; Torque going from the flywheel to the rear end? So those numbers would be good for being stock then.
