It wouldn't be perfect but you can easily get two points on opposite ends of the torque curve by converting the high RPM max HP value to torque.
Torque = (HP * 5252)/RPM
Since Torque = HP at 5252 RPM and the max HP value we were given is around 5300 RPM it looks like it may be a plateau of ~200 ftlbs of torque through most of the RPM range.
