I think that's for a fully built unit. The stock units were rated 550 lbs/ft of maximum input torque, but like I said I've seen issues with them with slightly less torque than that behind centrifugal blowers. If you're going with a roots style blower, that's even more shock load so hopefully yours will be OK but don't be surprised if it shortens the trans. life. Good luck with the project!
