I'm sure that the clutch just needed more break in time with around town driving. Highway miles just don't do much at all for break in. Stop and go traffic gets the best heat tempering into the clutch material.
The high TQ number could be attributed in part to the slipping clutch starting to let go, much like the flash stall torque jump on an automatic trans dyno run. Though Rick's car should get much more than a normal SC'ed 3L (like there's anything to compare to other than Kinger's anyway
) because of all of the extras Rick has added on like smaller pulley, headers, and P&P heads, nobody will know for sure what it will put down until the next try at a tune.
