| 40 | Comments | This motor is very torquey! It may not scream down the 1/4 mile, but it can pull a house! It will pull from 1500rpm without a complaint. After the head work this winter, I expect the HP to jump to 170 but still be found under 5200rpm. The only complaint about the set up is the piece of crap pulley i have right now...mic'd out under spec and allows a fine mist when revved. |
