Like I posted. If you need the extra oomph of torque below 2000rpm. Buy a freakin' tractor and ditch the DOHC beauty of an engine you have.
Hello people!!! Get this ancient pushrod V8 mated to a slushbox thinking out of your heads...
Even if you make that extra 10 TQ at 2k and below. Who cares. It's not truely usable for anything "performance" wise anyway. If you are driving this car the way it was intended you will never see such low rpm's to begin with. Even cruising I never hit 2k or below. It's just stupid to lug the engine when you have the option (MTX - downshift) not to.
