Yes. There's still more in it. For a number of reasons, ran out of time and I never touched the carb yet. Without any changes to jetting whatsoever, it was 561hp/580tq. Avg hp was 505 and avg tq was 550. Torque was already at 550 by 3800 and stayed above 500 to 6000rpm. Timing was only 28.5. With a little fatter jetting and a degree or two of timing I'm pretty confident that the final numbers will be another 20-30hp. But the torque curve is so solid I hate to mess with it.
