im going to assume its not gonna wanna pull much past ~5300, and I havent seen the dyno sheet yet, I have to wait to go get the car for that but I will try to post it as soon as possible guys. im stoked about the numbers, while not the 300+ I was hoping, that is a solid 280 with lots of torque to the wheels. I know it wasnt running close to that before it went in.. while replacing my radiator with a better/bigger one, they also balanced my driveshaft and fixed my horridly leaking brake booster, so im happy. once again ill post the sheet asap

you know what, I knew I would get that from someone.. and Ill take it with a grain of salt because I already knew about what my outcome would be... just dont see the point of pointing out "Its f*cking pathetic" for a 347 Im pretty sure we all have established that..

Im wanting emission legal afr's, but I need a better cam that is going to let me pass CA smog =[. I think I will be happy for a while though, ill be on hopefully later this evening with the dyno sheet.

and why shouldnt I be smiling? I am finally going to have a smooth running car for the first time in a year or so, brake booster is fixed, as is the cooling and vibration problem. not to mention its making way more power - I have plenty of reasons to be smiling =]

Ive got to work on paying off some of this debt but I have decided on the 185s for a while now, Ill start looking to find combos that have passed the smog. thanks for your input guys

I am now accepting donations for better heads if anyone feels obliged to do so ;] ha!

i was just about to say that, thats pretty damn good power for stock heads, and nuthing is radical all frrp parts. theres full hci cars having trouble even making that, and hes stil on stock heads.
