SAE corrected figures were 440ish hp, and 440ish torque at the wheels.  Because of the debate on correction factors, I ran it at a dragstrip at a lower altitude than Denver (2800ft)... based on the trap speed, the hp calculater indicated 455hp at the wheels.
 
I think it's safe to say "over 400 at the wheels."

Dave-
How much hp/torque are you running that killed your Torsen?
