I was curious about the peak torque rpm, nothing more. From the tech article I posted a serious racer might align himself with this comment...
"Once you leave the dyno you should be armed with some documentation gleaned from the dyno runs. You need to be concerned not only with the peak power but where the torque and horsepower numbers are versus engine rpm. These critical bits of data are just what you paid for."
If you look at many dyno sheets for roller lifter profiles often the spread is 1000-1200 or more rpm between peak torque and peak power. As much as 1400+ rpm is not uncommon. Combination specific.
