At this level of power, area under the curve...... how much horsepower, torque? 5-10-15-100?? Area under the curve may mean little to many in a case like this. Lets talk how much hp/tq in a case like this. Let’s speak English for the guy. Mile long burnouts or a baby chirp?

Under 3000 rpm power is hard to gain in a NA engine, adding displacement would be one of the main ways adding power down low. The trick is to add parts the don’t overly effect under 3000 rpm while gaining 3000-5500 rpm.

Don’t need tons of power to have a fun car 5.0 mustangs proved that. Adding a small cam should give the OP similar results.
