Holley Strip Dominator vs. Edelbrock Victor 340

Greg, this is a good question. Your cam would want to spin more rpm in a shorter stroke engine I think for making power. The Victor, from what I have been reading and seeing for years, likes more rpm. If the intake allows more power, it has to be flowing better somewhere.

I’m Assuming your going to dyno the engine over track testing.

That's sort of the basis of what I'm asking - whether the intake by itself would allow the engine to rev higher.

By their nature I do think stroker engines tend to peak at lower rpms. Of course some will rev higher but with an off the shelf type build like mine, 6,500 seems typical. And just because the motor peaks at 6,200 does not mean I would shift it there but I'd have to see what it likes when I get it down the track on a consistent basis.

I don't know if I'll take the motor back to the dyno before it goes back in the car.
