I think we are both missing somthing. You said the numbers I metioned were not realistic numbers and I was wondering what you ment. I am saying that i think his setup is the best he can do, because his cam is for 6500 and that is what he is at at the quarter. I am aware that less power needs more gear, thats not what I was getting at.
