Thats right, he said it was a torque monster until it runs out of breath at like 3K or something. Id laugh my *** off at that funny looking dyno graph. His HP curve probably looks like a torque curve and his torque curve probably looks like a cliff.

I couldn't imagine how it would be to drive something like that. There's been quite a few head only z06's, or people running the z06 cam with ported or aftermarket heads.
