Torque

Obviously GM-Allison don't give a fig about differentiating between Engine Torque and Propeller Torque in the C130. One indication only, Engine Torque, displayed in in/lbs and measured between the core engine and the gearbox by the Torque Meter Shaft assembly. On all up to and including the 'H' model a limit of 19600 in/lbs applied, this being an engine mounting limit rather than an engine limitation. Don't know about the J model, no seat for a F/E.
