This is interesting. I was running an early model 13b 4pt in my 83 race car. DynoJet read 177bhp @ 8000 w/ 127lbs torq @ 4500. 48 IDA Weber dawn draft. I picked up a 4pt Renisis hoping to get 200bhp w/side draft Mikuni. Unfotunately we broke our race motor before we completed the intake for the Mikuni. We have a couple 13b 6pt motors. Found a side draft intake @ R.B. for a $150. Not in the budget yet. Borrowed a 6pt intake and an Edlebrock carb jetted for a v-8. Wondering what kind of hp numbers to expect. From what I see here, should be close to race motor. Don't want to rev 8000 with a stock motor tho. Porting is not in the budget with race motor rebuild. Plan on using 6pt motor as backup until race motor is ready.

NoDOHC will become famous soon enough
I think that 200 bHp is easily doable out of a 6-port. This thread is talking about 200 WHp (which is more like 240-250 bhp). I got 155 WHp out of a bone stock 6-port (mechanically stock anyway) with 190,000+ miles, this is almost 200 bhp (about 190).

I see you mentioned Dynojet, was this dynoed at the wheels, or the flywheel?

177 WHp is good out of an '83 4-port. 177 bHp is average.

I have only seen carbs on 12A rotaries, and have never attempted to make additional power with them. Fuel injection is so much easier to tune precisely (although initial startup is much easier with the carb).
