Jim, what type of induction did you guys end up going with? I'll wager something after that's learned.

I reckon on about 95bhp at 4700rpm, due mainly to the intake restrictions. Am I close to what you're expecting Jim? :)

85hp @ 4700.  I bet it idles like a fuel funny car.

actually, I expect the idle to be somewhat civil. I've run a bit more duration in stock carbed engines that were smaller cc. I based the duration selection for this thing by looking at cams for similar displacement 4 cylinder that ran CIS injection... those things are super sensitive to valve overlap. Not only that, but I timed this cam to reduce intake reversion pulses....  but we'll see....

70... maybe 75 horse. Torque should be pretty respectable though.

Are you running 86 octane or 88 octane Lake County Premium?  ;D I'm guessing 52fwhp  or 37 rwhp unless you're running that locked up stock tranny that you bought with that POS  ::) then it's 25rwhp.
