Hi Peter,
Have a look at this test we did on a similar spec engine but with a Steel crank and rods for safety, (The std Ally rods of course would depart company in minutes at this power and revs)
a slightly smaller bore than Hans's @ 76mm but our own spec cams and 4 carbs.

195KW @ 6280 (although about 160kw @ 4750 for comparrison with Hans's max)
386NM @ 2800 RPM

If we try we have had engines giving 330+ BHP @ 6000+ but unlike the engine in my graph here, these are rather special engines with very much more time invested!
(one of our customers in Spain drives a 300+ bhp V12 DHC !) No over heating and a Rocket ship! Happy
