Message A stock TT makes 266 ft-lbs BEFORE the mechanical advantage of the gears and final drive. In first gear the Z makes

266*3.692*3.214 = 3156 ft-lbs

of torque at the wheels. Actual torque at the wheels decreases every time you shift, torque at the flywheel is unchanged.

That impact wrench does not beat the Z.
