Default Re: Where do you shift your BB?

-------I dont know what cam you are running, but when we built Red Alerts motor we built it to make its power at 7000 and it was a race car that weighed 3900lbs and ran in the low tens. Engine dynoed at 765 at 7000rpm. Any faster than that would peal a tenth or two off. What you were doing may have been fun but I cant believe it was optimal! Please dont take this as a slam. Its not intended that way, but you had to be out of your RPM band. I would be interested in hearing weather you felt the engine flatten out up there or not. If its a factory spec cam it would start to run out of steam around 6500. Also, what are the specs on the cam you are twisting?............Bill S
