You sound like you want it to do everything, and usually that just doesn't happen. Motors that make big HP numbers above 6,000 RPM generally don't make huge torque numbers below 2,000 RPM.

You can build a good motor with lots of low and midrange power, or you can build a good motor with lots of midrange and high rpm power, but you sound like you want something that will be an absolute screamer from 1,500 RPM to 6,500 RPM, and that just doesn't work.

I'm looking for more mid - high end power I'll never use it at a low rpm. I miss phrased what I meant. Ok so say I go with the 5cc domed pistons and the same heads. What cam do you think I should use say If I kept it N/A, and what intake would you suggest.


Matt and arock...Thats why I'm building up a spare block. so If I run into financial issues I still have my car and so I don't have some POS rotting away in my yard.
