stock lifters I have have dana lifters(hydrualic) which are basically just a stock replacement. How high of rpm can stock lifters or dana take before the power falls of dramatically? Also can one bad lifter or all of them cause such a dramatic power drop? The car is peaking around 6300 and was designed to peak around 6800 or so. The hp is dropping off by about 30 horse from 6300-6700. Also the tuning is the best it can get, a/f is 12.9 all through, andd spark advance pretty aggressive. We tried alot of things up top, but nothing helped. thanks guys

I wouldn't turn stockers more than 6500 tops before you can expect them to pump up and even thats pushing it. I use to think Comp R's were a cheaper solution but since the design change it appears the only real solution now is a quality lifter like Morel.

Very well could be the cause of your issues but at the same time it could be something else.

something else, what about my tranny? i went from a sixspeed putting 160 to the wheels on a 150 shot, then going to th400, 3800 stall and only put 130 to the wheels on a 200 shot, nothing else changed. Does the type of tranny you run (m6 or th400) depend on what rpm the power PEAKS at?
