Boy I dunno... Those two hair dryers puffing away on the V6 Ford make some pretty impressive numbers. If you believe the Ford chart, she's making good numbers from 1500 rpm up to about 5k and you could set a level on the curve between 2k and 4.5k, where it's making 400+ lbs. But I do hear you on KISS for fleet operation!
