You should see in a data log that the engine is maintained between the high and low. This was one of the fixes with v4. There were a lot of complaints on the rev limiters doing what you just described and that was addressed with v4.

Thanks Sean, Dan Cabral that runs the Holley forums says to use spark, high only. I understand this was introduced in V4. I've always used V4. I'll definitely try the soft setting. I'd sure like to keep using the rev limiter for launching but I feel 200 rpm makes a significant different in RT. On my chevelle it sure does anyway but I only footbrake it. Thanks again.
