Tom,

Not sure exactly what you mean, but I will admit that my combination has a
head configuration that is more tuned toward the high end.  I was torn
between building for big HP potential and streetability.  I decided to go
for streetability with respect to cam and intake manifold but chose a big
port and big valve head for future potential.  This of course makes the
combination not optimized for either application.  However, on the street
the combination did work very well, good idle and low end characteristics
but plenty of go.  Lots of unexploited HP potential in case I ever
completely go insane.  Too bad it broke.

Frank
