Actually, that's not really true. Since HP is the measure of torque over time, HP is just as limiting a factor as torque.
You can't have HP without torque.
Now suggesting one to copy what race engine builders do, is not a very good idea either. They get to tear their engines down after relatively few miles and are pushing the engine to the limits during most of it's running life.
You simply are not going to be able to do much with this engine to justify a tear down, port, polish and rebuild just to gain a few HP on the high end.
