I must need an education on what "power band" means. The way I look at the numbers the power starts coming on at 2500 RPM and falls off around 5200 RPM. Sounds like a fairly wide power band to me. If I am wrong please enlighten me. I drove trucks for a living for about 10 years. They had a tight power band: 1600 - 2100 RPM or 1800 - 2100 RPM, 500 and 300 RPM respectively. Now THAT is a short power band.
