Torque

If I remember correctly,
The 351M had about 130-135 HP @4400rpm
and about 285-310 Ftlbs of torque @ 2800 rpm

Don't quote me though.

150HP? That seems a little low...

How about the HP/torque for the 400?

It differs from each year because in the late 70's more and more emissions regulations were added which hacked down the power.

400 had a 8.4:1 compression ratio in 72

The 78 400 had 160HP
I'm sure the 78 351M only had about 135HP.

I have the specs for a 400 from 1971-76,
and the 351M for 75 -76
For 1974, What other 351 was there besides
the C,W,?
For 351's listed it says:
351W
351C
351 ( No M )
