Any idea what rpm range this thing makes max HP? Trying to make a gearing decision for a new track were going to.
 
Max HP, or suggested peak rpm?


We turn our jr2 (turquoise) flatheads 5700 on big momentum ovals, and 6200 on tight ovals where you scrub a lot of rpm in the corners.
Peak HP is well below both of those numbers though - with peak torque in the low 3000's and peak HP in the mid 4000's.

Thanks. We're going to a new track tomorrow and the motor was on a dyno It just seemed weird that it make peak Hp @ 4700 I thought something was wrong. It does make nice steady power from 3.8k-4.7. I'll watch how much we loose it the corners but from the paperwork I don't think I'm gonna spin it much past 5k based on the print out. We never raced a flathead though, just clones on a 1/10 mile. Well see how it goes, thanks brian.
