Can you explain this one to me? Does this mean I'm losing my power between 6,000-9,000 RPM. If so, I don't spend a lot of time in that RPM range.

Ernie, you should get a set of Webers, I hear they bring even more "oneness" with your engine.

Roller lifters...no ZDDP issues.

I may install a solid roller in my SOHC build.
