Has anyone ever seen a torque curve for the stepdown 254 cid engine?
I have seen one for the 308 cid but not the 254 or 262.
Thanks

    I found this HP chart from the 1937 cars.

    Using the top curve which is for the Hudson 8, the torque curve can be derived by the following formula:

    Torque = HP x 5252 divided by RPM.

    Conversely, HP = Torque x RPM divided by 5252.
