Default L72 cam peak HP? What RPM?
Anyone know when peak HP is reached on an L72 cam?
How about Torque?

The L72 was originally rated at 450hp @ 6400 rpm but was revised down to 425 @ the same rpm soon after introduction due to insurance company pressure. Torque peak was 465 @ 4000 rpm.

Sorry, it was a loaded question.
I was looking for actual dyno results
