Yes... my latest engine is injected (throttle body). It makes peak hp @ 7400 rpm and cruises in any gear (6spd) @ 1400 rpm without bucking. My other engines were built for track use. This time around I built for street use and low maintenance, without giving up any performance. Same cid, injected, bigger heads, and a hydraulic roller made more HP at 200 rpm higher. We gave up over-rev because of the hydraulic cam, but I don't need over-rev on the street anyway.

Note: 27 different combinations were dyno tested during development.
