Swamp, you and I have had some good banter on here, and I respect your posts highly since you are one of the few that actually add value to the forums.

Yes absolutely (for rotating engines). Then to extrapolate you can know the performance of any given vehicle with said engine by knowing either the torque curve + gearing or simply by knowing peak hp. You get a darn good estimate with peak hp alone but of course knowing the full hp curve is better.
