Here are the results of some simulations that I ran using the basic version of Engine Analyzer. In all pics, the stock 2.0L with 8:1 c/r is the "current" graph where green is hp and purple is torque. In the first picture, the "last results" are of the same 2.0L motor but with the Web 73 cam and 9:1 c/r. In the second picture, the last results are of the 2.0 but with the Web 86 cam and 9:1 c/r. In the third picture, the last results are of the 2.0 with the Web 86 cam, dual 48 Webers and a freer flowing exhaust. In all pictures the green line is the hp of the stock 2.0 and the red line is the hp of the modified 2.0. According to these simulations, even with the lower compression ratio, the stock cam produces superior torque and hp to about 4000 rpm.
