	Jus curious, was this with mufflers?. 
	Yes...barely:-)

	and how wide of range did it run, a
	band of a couple hundred rpm or several thousand?.
	Usually 5500 to 7500

	The 2 barrel guys are really doing some odd stuff, and while they
can get
	these numbers for racing, a season's racing is barely a weeks worth
of
	normal street driving.
	 
	Yes and can change in less than an hour... seen where engine was
running  .39.. then set valve lash..
	Had storm fron coming in.. next pull it ran .45's.....john playe
with carb.. got it back down to .40~.41...

	Also, one of their targets are MPG, and a street strip car's not
gonna be
	able to live at them numbers, IMHO.

	I agree... seem they have problems with exaust valves:-)... run
really hot...

	I'm not saying impossible, just that it's a major effort
	Grumpy
