Insert 5250 RPM into that equation and HP must equal torque.

Look at any correct graph for HP and torque and they cross at 5250 RPM.

(Bob is right, it's actually 5252 RPM.)

They will always cross at 5252. On graphs where that doesn't happen, it's because the scaling is different on the hp and toque axis', not because something is wrong with the dyno.
