Uh-oh. Sky's falling asleep.

282*/282* 220*/220* (going to be a degree or two more with the rockers)@.500 .530"/.530" LCA 107*/117*, LSA 110*

Compression is nice to have when attempting to make max power, he should already be a little over 9.0:1.

Bottom line is the Holley was touted to be a good low rpm intake while still making excellent top end power. Apparently, it's not nearly as good in the lower rpms as it's made out to be?

Do you think any of the lower rpm loss may have come from the increased duration at .050 and the ported headers, Sky?
