After a full gastric torsion with complete inflow and outflow obstruction, I would estimate the maximum survival time with no intervention at 12 hours. However, once the torsion occurs, there is decreased blood flow and nerve damage accumulating from the first minute, so even if you get the stomach flipped back around the odds of surviving to discharge from the vet clinic is about 50%, and drops rapidly as the dog's blood chemistry values get out of balance.

What are torsion bars?
A torsion bar is used in an auto suspension. A torsion bar suspension, also known as a torsion spring suspension or torsion beam suspension, is a general term for any vehicle suspension that uses a torsion bar as its main weight bearing spring. One end of a long metal bar is attached firmly to the vehicle chassis; the opposite end terminates in a lever, the torsion key, mounted perpendicular to the bar, that is attached to a suspension arm, a spindle, or the axle. Vertical motion of the wheel causes the bar to twist around its axis and is resisted by the bar's torsion resistance. The effective spring rate of the bar is determined by its length, cross section, shape, material, and manufacturing process.
