Gary, finding the torque vs. HP vs. RPM sweet spot - that's what it be!
lovehamr, yep I did change the rules, I made it a more value-added exercise
I don't think the Willy's is a modded carb, more like Willey's bending the rules to the max. extent possible. Just like the 12 Metre "America's Cup" racing yachts, you see how those boats have changed over the last decade? - they still have to conform to the 12 Metre class specs. As for torque, I like it early but it all evens out later with HP. Yeah your BB has a slight torque advantage but I get that back with less weight
Dominik, SS headers and MASTERTOUCH sidepipes, see bottom of page. As for the last part, you would be absolutely correct!

Bill, torque is greatly underrated in my opinion, the mission is to overcome Newton's 1st law.
JustOne, you're probably right about the cnc porting - but it's all mute because I'm out of money
The 6200 peak power question has been superseded by a more refined approach to this -
(max area under the torque curve from 2000 - 6000 rpm) + [.9 x (max area under the HP curve from 2000 - 6000 rpm)] = perfect carb size
