Question on higher rpm gains
My 367 made peak horsepower at 6500 on the dyno and started to fall off after that so I shift at 6500 , actually I am shifting at 6,000 right now as another way of slowing the car down for 11.50. That 500 rpm equals about a tenth in my combo. When I ran this motor on race gas ( now lower compression and pump gas ) I had a 4.88 gear in the car I still have my stroker motor gears in now 4.30s. I will be switching back to 4.88s soon. I have always launched at 2,500 a few years ago when my friend was driving my car he was leaving at 2,000 and I found no difference in 60 fts. between 2,000 and 2,500 so I now leave at 2,000 via footbrake. This motor made 527 hp and 467 tq on the dyno its gone 11.00s at 119 recent changes should put it in the 10.90s but it is throttle stopped down for 11.50s
