Re: in general where does torque peak on a well set up 346? depends on what you are trying to accomplish and what mods are part of your definition of well set-up. Could be as high as 5000 - 5200 rpm even on a hyd. cam'ed car.
With a 3500 stall A4, a tq peak of 4200 might work well, but with a 4400 stall, the peak is probably too low unless the curve is dead flat for another 600 rpms or more.

Re: in general where does torque peak on a well set up 346? actually the car i have is amustang with a 347 and so far it seems like torque peak is a little to high.it peaks at 5200.and being a manifold has a little bit to do with torque peak i was just curious were the ls1 made its torque in general being i used an intake with a similar intake runner length.

Re: in general where does torque peak on a well set up 346? ROG most of the well built 346's have a TQ peak in the 4900-5200 RPM range. Many of them are over 350rwtq by 3000 RPM and at or near 400rwtq
by 5252 RPM.
by 5252 RPM.

Re: in general where does torque peak on a well set up 346? I agree with HP GURU, stock cammed motor has torque peak around 4600rpm, so cammed and ported head cars are 4900 to 5300 range. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: in general where does torque peak on a well set up 346? Most H/C 346ci LS1's have peak tq at 4700.
My 422ci peaks (505rwtq) at 4200. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: in general where does torque peak on a well set up 346? My camaro
stock 320@4200rpms
pulley/catback/ported tb 330@4500rpms
added heads/cam 360rwtq@4700rpms
added headers 379rwtq@4500rpms
removed catback 391rwtq@4700rpms
added 2001 intake manifold 396rwtq@4750rwtq
My C5
heads/cam/pulley, no headers 363rwtq@5000rpms
I bet a set of longtubes would really move that torque peak down in the rpms and up in the power.
