So on the softer setting the Hotchkis bar would be softer or about the same as the Strano bar...(big assumption!!).

What DXW said is correct, it is 1.85x for the Strano bar hotchkis is 2.70x. Hotchkis advertises 500 ft/lbs for their soft setting. There is no way the stock bar is the better part of 300 lbs/in. The hotchkis bar is not softer than the Strano part.
