I think Andrew was pushing TREEL1 to near 1000-WHP SAE and pulley'd down a bit and it got happier, but everything you're saying makes sense, and it seems to me, you're posting information people can learn from (obviously - Josh' and King' are always sharing their wealth of experience, too ).

Thanks to you all for taking time to share
The balance of the combo is important for sure. We keep spinning it faster because the temps don’t go up while the power does, but everything has been done to optimize a 2650 (engine size, cam choice, head porting, cooling routing, cooling bricks, exhaust, etc). You can definitely plateau much earlier without thinking everything through and more pulley might just hurt more than it helps.

Happy to help where I think I can!
