    Look at eatons web page get the whole model # and look it up as there are different torque ratings for same trans.

    don't think it really matters what the torque ratings and what not are. it's nice to know the specs. but that won't tell you how many horses are pulling the load.

    me, personally, would like to know the actual number. AND the limits of what can be done.

    I feel a little different, dyno sheets are just numbers. My 85 359 has a 3406? that does a real good job. Fact is cruised into GCB in West Memphis at 94380 today. It crossed the ridge in .87 and 1.0 course coming out of Harrisburg on 14 from the light there is no getting a run at it. Mind you it is a custom built engine, something I wanted to try and did I call it a ? because it's alot of trouble to type it all out and some wish to debate it I don't. Right at 200 thousand on it since I built it and haven't touched it. I am a little curious somedays at what it makes but in the end it does what I want it to and averaged 5.7 hauling out of the field this week. lightest load was 87 and change heaviest was 94380.
