In Reply to: RE: 411 Ft lbs of torque at the wheels of a 4 banger Ecoboost posted by Michael Samra on June 19, 2016 at 21:58:35
Couldn't hardly get those numberes from 8's not too far back.
OK, I guess it was far back.
Using the word 'squeezed' may not be right. The 4-blocks out there are reportedly very strong; built for those stresses, not just over-pumped economy engines made for fast sales, which used to be the case.

You aren't just a kidding..Go back to the early 70s and a only a big block V8 would hammer that kind of torque not at the wheels. Of course if you took a 460 Ford and put multi-port fuel injection and and twin turbos,and a host of other upgrades,you would be wailing.
