Trying to get higher in the RPM's

[rocc4u]

OK I thought that duration determines where you make your power at not lift. I understand that lift will get mor air into the engine but that wouldnt effect the rpm's where he makes his power at. So moving up to a 1.7 would help him out??

I am a Chevy guy myself and he is Ford through and through(makes it fun) but we are both in the Army stationed in Germany. We have a Autobahn over here, I dont know how familiar you are with the Autobahn but imagine all the freeways in the states with no speed limits....As fast as you can go.
Well when we line em up and go he always gets me good off the line, but I eventually reel him in and pass him. Its like his cars just has no more when we both know it does. I have 3:23 gears and he has 3:73's. I am not talking racing two miles or nothing but just till we run hit about 130mph.
Thanks, rocc
