I don't believe DJ did anything other than jetting, some intake filter mods, some exhaust mods.

Reply #12 - 02/18/16 at 10:55:00 The thing you should pay attention to......is that the DYNO sheet shows that the Savage engine is making a lot of torque by 2,500 rpm.....and the torque is strong from 3,000 up to 5,000 rpm. Multiple cylinder engines don't make toque at those low revs. (unless it's a diesel).
