What elevation? Where did torque peak at? Assuming some head work?

Default Star Racing - Americus GA

Americus GA is at 479 feet per google. Tq 152.22 at 4400 rpm Hp 146.33 at 5700 rpm George Bryce and George Smith / S&S
are tight and actually had a race team together years ago. This build was done in Nov, 2015, and the engine was as it comes
from S&S - I know add-ons were required but nothing like head work was done. With the easy start cams you can't even tell
it's a big motor when cranking. This motor pulls everywhere but at 4500 rpm is where it really jumps. It's in a 2004 EGC with
stock 5 speed and gearing but really should be up 2 on the front and down 2 on the rear pulleys. As it is 140 mph riding two
up is impressive for a bagger but I must say that she's a 95 lb spinner.

I'm at 5000ft so I will lose about 15% just for that. Hoping to get in the 140/140 range. The 635 ho cams should come on sooner in theory. We shall see. Would be nice to get similar numbers though.

We run over to Palm Springs regularly and pin it there - only about 700 ft. Big difference and were only at about 2500 feet
here at home. At your elevation you can get away with more compression too. We also tip the Av gas 100 blue LL can about
25% - your motor will like that too.

Star Power (formerly Star Racing, and G2), has been setting the standards of big HP and winning races for decades.
I run one of their motors (modified) and it is bulletproof and rips.
As far as big mph on public roads.....are you saying you rip 140 mph runs with a passenger on the back?
Seriously....

Is that with stock 10.8:1 compression? The numbers just seem high for a completely left alone S&S 124". Star claims around 135/135 without mods.
