Ok, now that I have 76 280 running much, much better and having just gobs of fun throwing it around corners and long curves I've come to wonder...

How much damn torque does that thing got anyway?

I know it's only a four speed and I need to get used to that, however it doesn't EVER seem to run out of torque or not respond even in high geer at low speeds.

 

157 ft lbs of torque at 4600 rpm's/min
