One question, after looking at the graph can you tell my why the torque takes a nose dive after 5300 rpms but the horsepower is just hitting its stride ??

Not trying to sound like a jerk with the question, but the graphs are on different scales and not overlayed. Maybe I am not seeing something correctly. I don't have my contacts in either. LOL.

I take that back; I just saw that the results were on an unlocked stall... BOTTOM 11s @ full weight with a decent 60'.

They look like solid numbers to me. I'm sure the 90/90 could be giving more than 10rwhp, though. But even with that, still great numbers through the auto and stall.

the fast 90 with this combo in an auto car is worth about 10hp,it doesnt really shine until you go to some bigger heads and more compression
