Actually check out the peak with the stock ported heads....its about where you had guessed. Better heads will always allow a milder combination to peak later because even though the valve events are short, they are still able to adequately fill the cylinder. The fact I ground the cam on a 112 also helped the power curve hang on (wider LSA's always do that) and the single plane intake also pitched in to allow the curve to carry a little better as well. Honestly a port mathced cleaned up RPM air gap would have made the same peak power figure and added 20 ft/lbs to the peak torque numbers and a ton of area under the curve....I wish Wes could have fit that intake but unfortunately he had to go with a lower profile manifold. Would have been cool to test both....probably one of my only regrets from the testing. -Tony |
