I have a small block stroker. 354 c.i.

I have had it dyno'ed three times at two different shops. Both started at (about)2200 rpms.

Before I stroked the motor I had it dyno'ed at three different shops, all started at 2000-2200.

My 354 makes 325 ft lbs of torque at 2200.

I have a couple of buddies with KC 482s and they cruise at 2000 rpm about 70 mph with no trouble. I don't think you will have to worry. When WE want to pass we do not have to down shift!
