What's the torque from the tubby engine?

My Carlton has a 24V 3litre engine kicking out 199lb's/ft (when new), but still has the rear axle, diff and rear half of the prop from being a 2 litre. Done about 20K miles - with no problem, so your LET must chuck out a fair bit of torque.......or your diff seized?
