Thanks Mike, I forgot about those calculations. I have used those in the past and I have found that you may have to multiply the horsepower by the volumetric efficiency to get close to real world numbers. The rpm side was usually close. I didn't think with the longer stroke of the 5.3 that it would need to rpm that high.
