HP is not the limiting factor, unless you are talking about heat rejection due to internal friction, or a design limit for maximum internal rotating speed.
Most engines do not produce their peak torque at maximum RPM as you are implying here.
Check the manufacturers specifications for drivetrain components. They do not list horsepower. They do list torque.
