Agreed...not with a tunnel port. It has been proven by some of the best in the racing buisness that a tunnel port wont work in the high rpm range..9200-10k+. some years back, millions were spent testing tunnel ports for prostock. They scrapped the whole program.

Since you are privy to the tests, did they test with the pushrod in the port or out of the port?

Don't get me wrong a inline valve is not on the same playing field as a current prostock layout and that high of hp per cube is stretching it.

It wouldn't be a tunnel port if the push rod was out of the port..
