i have that same cam from TSP for my LQ9. the power range is 1800 to 6400 rpms. its the torquer 2. honestly your DCR is probably lower then it needs to be and you wont see the most out of that combo like that. im running 11.1 SCR and my DCR is 8.12 with that cam and depending on the CC of those heads your SCR may be way off.

i also run 410s with my setup with a stock height tire. for you to run such a steep gear and small tire you will be over reving that motor in the traps

I'm thinking I'm going to have the heads milled alittle. How much should I mill them?? The heads are 62cc chambers so I'm alittle higher than the stock head chamber which is 61.1cc's or so I might loose some compression......well like I said I haven't decided on a tire hieght yet. If I run a 26" tall tire with the 3.73's, it's close to a 4.10:1. If I run a 4.56:1 gear with the same 26" tall tire then yes I'll be over reving the motor. If I run the 4.56:1 gear, I'll run the 28" or so. I'll prolly run the 26" tire with the 3.73's. I don't have a clue what I'm going to do!!LOL!!

I was slower, but then again, all I really needed was a good set of 4.10s and some more nitrous, but I personally enjoy 23mpg.

What do you mean that you were slower?? So I guess your saying that this setup is not good for a N/A setup?? When I run it @ the track, I'll probably put the 26" tall tires on. This will get me close or dead nuts on the 4.10:1 gear ratio even with the 3.73's that are in it. Yup, 23mpg is a good thing. That's what I'm getting now.
