Yes, 289's at 8000 rpm
But, on a more serious note, do you agree that the mid range can be cleaned up and produce more HP, using air corrector jetting?
Street engines are way different than all out race engines but, even race engines, need the right A/F, in the range they run in, even if it's only 1500 rpm.
For a race engine, you give it all the carburation you can, until the HP drops off, in the range your working in. In the engines that I had dynoed, they jet for max HP and then, come back with the air correcting jets, to bring the mid range in.
