I installed a tach this last week on my B2. Last night was the first time I had driven it with the new tach installed (it's my toy, so I only drive it about once a week). I floored it to see what it revved to and at full throtle I shifted at 3800 rpms. That seems really low to me. Do these engines just not rev? Are they really that inefficient? I wanna switch over to a 302, but am kinda curious as to what these engines are capable of with some head work, cam, duraspark conv (which I haven't done), and better exhaust.
