Actually I like the loudmouth...only drone is at 2200-2500 in low gears...cruises nice.
No more Ram clutch...went spec s3 and like it alot better.
See if the torque arm comes this week....
I dont know what the hell you would do with more torque...1st gear is useless now.

mikey, what would need to be changed on this setup to make it have a flatter tq curve, yet still retain the most torque possible? would 400 RWTQ be possible with the same cam by 2500 rpm or so?? i dont want to rev it too the moon, just have gobs of low end tq..
Congrats to you for your home built motor, and Mikey for his heads and tuning. 
Those are darn good numbers, and you didn't add the weight of an iron block to the front of your car. 
Get it to the track and have some fun.

Wow it finally dawned on me whats going on here. All of you guys looking at my dyno graph and no one mentioned it. Nearly every graph posted here starts out at 3000-3500rpm. We posted mine at 2000rpms because we were working on timing at throttle tip in. My rpm scale is stretched way out. I think the bottom end torque is misleading because this thing hits hard and can spin easily. Too bad we all arent comparing apples to apples like i posted in the other thread.
Mikey worked on the timing/driveability alot. Definately got my moneys worth.
