I was waiting to see if anyone else chimed in, but I think there is signs of clutch slipping slightly.

The torque comes on hard (95 ft lbs @2500) and then flat lines until the small spike at 4200. Most graphs I see with these cams, the power continues to rise from 2500 untill 3700.

So my thinking is: stock clutch is slipping slightly due to tq coming in hard, then as power falls off it is able to grab 100% again at the 4200 which would induce the spike?

Power could be better in the hp area. the ProPipe isn't the best hp pipe around and it still has the stock baffle in it.

I had to add the stronger diaphragm spring. I could feel it slip with stock spring but it dose not slip now.
