But it sure runs good, just wonder what it could have made if I really got after it, intake work, oil pan work, lightened the bottom end up, 1.8 intake rocker, more compression. Vacuum was 15 inches @ 750 RPM @ 6400 feet altitude. Heres a video.

There is more torque at lower rpm. Look where the tq is at 3500 rpm. Your correct and probably never see it at the track.
