Does anyone know what the torque would be @2500 on a 351w 4v give or take a little?

It's not a typo. Most engines do not realize their full torque untill 3500+ RPM. If you are trying to accomplish what I think you are yo need to study up on stall speed torque converters and their usage some more. ------------------

If you wanna study up on them try,http://www.calgarydragracing.ab.ca/ Go to tech tips, and read the articles "torque converters explained" and "selecting a torque converter". Lots of good basic info there.
