Well are you on about the old 3.5 on what kinda carbs ?? so many differnt setups... if not mistaken i think they are about 160ish bhp ... im not sure though.

My one in my racer is 5ltr played with and its pushing out 325+ bhp not sure or torque though! if you really are interested i can find out from my engine man ... hes like a V8 manual lol

the 3.5 V8 i have is the injection version with the single plenum, this makes 190hp not sure on torque though. There are so many different versions of the 3.5 rover V8 some range from 120hp to just over 200, i think the SD1 on twin SU carbs makes about 150 correct me if im wrong.
