Missing RPM! I'll make it as short as possible. LME 408 iron. 13.5 to 1. FMS cam 275-286 .735-.715 @112. Jesel shaft mount rockers. Solid roller. Rpm peaks at 6200????? It should peak around 7500! Torque peaks about 5500. Dropped the exhaust on the dyno and lost hp? A/F and timing doesn't help. Fast intake 90/90. I tried three different MAFs. LS6 heads.they flow 323 from .650 to .750 Intake valve is a 2.10. Heads are not great by any means, BUT stock heads with small valves should be able to run higher rpm than 6200? I'm lost.

The intake manifold runner length is going to force your motor into peaking lower than you want plain and simple. If you run a sheet metal intake with runner length optimized for your rpm window, I'm sure you would make peak power at a much higher rpm level.

I agree that the intake isn't the best for high rpm but the same intake ran to 6700 with a hyd roller much smaller cam 242-250 .611-.619 @ 113.???? This is driving me nuts!
