The rotor pack is too inefficient at greater than stock airflow, so that’s the root cause. GM originally had the rotor pack sized at 1640 to meet the 650 HP target. When it didn’t reach it, Eaton elongated the pack a tick and ended at 1740. But elongating the pack sucks for efficiency. Porting it helps get air to it better but the rotor pack is too small to efficiently get air moved at high power levels. The 2650 & 3.0 rotor packs simply move higher volumes of air at much lower discharge air temps…then they blend in massive bricks to boot. Win win.
