Managed to get up to 5800 RPM before it started falling off. Paul
That cam is only rated up to 5000 RPM! So your turning it well past where it has quit making power. That's why it falling off.....
Well doesn't that just make a whole lot of sense!!
I'm sure we all read that somewhere.
My numbers were 260 lbs torque @ 4400 RPM, 242 HP @ 5600.
I'm thinking I just might look at getting a bit more aggressive with the cam , and move to solid lifter. Time for a bit more homework.
Hank, I don't think Walt's damper is an issue. He has had a lot of problems in the past with dampers coming apart so he made the effort to get this unit built.
Not sure if anyone else has run one yet. It sure is a nice piece.
Thanks for everyone's help. Once we get the baseline stuff done I will be installing the engine and turbo on the car then sending it back to the shop for the rest of the work.
Still on the fence for an EFI system.
