The Torque is amazing and is in the RPM range you drive in.
Trying for more HP in a Rpm range you don't use 99% of the time, is a huge waste of money.
The torque will plenty fun enough going to a cruise night.
I've driven a few 70's and 72 base birds...with stock 2bbl...and I gotta say...the bottom end IS impressive.

I do have some 11's here I believe.....but wanted to run a 4bbl......with a shaker hood...

Not sure if the shaker will line up on a 2bbl....or if I even want it...
