Default Engine power question N/A motor

Here are the numbers : At 5100 RPM, you have 586 HP and 606 TQ. Out of the norm right ? HP peak is at 5100 RPM. I always thought TQ should be less at peak HP. So what kind of results should I see in the boat ? Twin engine heavy V.

Went to 5500 limiter. Hp was dead flat from 5100 to 5500. Ran out of airflow due to heads.

Getrdunn---in first post I stated peak was at 5100.

At 5250rpm HP and Torque cross on the charts since at this rpm torque=hp no matter what engine. So typically, under this rpm tq is greater than hp.

On a typical 4 cycle gas engine, HP peak rpm will be 1200 or so rpm after Tq Peak Rpm. I said typical. LOL. Unless limited by fuel, air/spark/valve control/or etc

I'm going to venture a guess that this engine has a 502MPI intake or some other tuned port intake ?
