I was curious as I have a driveability issue pulling 4th/5th gear below 2000 rpms and was wondering if my Super Victor intake was part of the issue, so I was interestedin how it drove for you, sounds like it drives pretty good.

I understand… drivability is a very subjective thing. This engine does push the envelope a bit for a street driven naturally aspirated engine. It is a good fit for what I am doing with the car. With all that said… I am surprised how street friendly this engine is. No stumbles on the bottom… very smooth and linear feel.
