40	Comments	Master Engine assembly has been done by Darren Krewenchuk as well as port and polishing of my SE heads. I'm Pleasantly surprised how well she pulls. As for driveability, powerband starts everywhere (aprox 4000rpms when cam really kicks in). Even with unmodified IDA's with 45 vents she's extremely streetable with manageable flat spots. And NO I DO NOT mask flat spots by running rich. The low end grunt is equally as hard as top end pull. Gobs of HP to tap into and torque to match. I'm getting close to fine tuning it, but I still have some jetting to play with. And currently my spark plugs are reading dark tan so I'm close.
