both could be right actually! torque does the work,all work, no torque or not enough torgue and no work done. hp is a measure of speed, more hp faster work gets done,less hp slower work gets done. but,,if I had a 100 hp tractor ,i could probably assume it would do more work than a 10 hp tractor up to a point consider this,I have a lawn mower,its a typical 25 hp kohler engiine.my N has 23 hp, which would make more sense to plow with? the N of course would plow more simply because of the tourqe created . SO its quite possible a deisel engine would out pull a engine with more hp,and its also possible a gas engine with more hp could out pull a deisel engine! the difference would be the one with more torque always will out pull the other,but on the flip side the engine with more hp will most all other things the same will pull FASTER than the other !LOL just think of it this way, torque=work done, hp= speed work is done. comparing two different tractors to assess amount of work they would do would you to know more than just the hp of engine. a hundred hp tractor, would be slower naturally than a hundred hp car,even if they had the same engine,simply because its geared down to create more torque to pull more.simple huh?
