I have a friend that is running a 294ci L-100 cam engine that makes 235 HP@ 4500 rpm on less than 5LBS of boost. It makes over 300ft/lbs of torque AT 3000rpm on 3 pounds of boost/ See what alittle will do for these ports???

The port restriction is exactly what I'm pondering, - will it prevent an L100 from revving high enough in a 221 to perform to it's max. I was thinking if they will feed a larger motor at lower RPM they should feed a smaller motor at high RPM, but yes it's not always that simple.
And there no chance of boost in this application.
