Why did the shop make you switch your bullets out?

With all those mods you'd think to buy different rims! 60rwhp is a HUGE jump, must feel nice on the butt dyno.

But the addition of these heads, especially with the 38cc chamber will pick up compression, and thus power, and be stock shortblock friendly as long as the stock intake manifold is used. And I'd bet you'd be up there to where your power level hopes are.

I was kind of figuring 10.5:1 comp ratio with the 38cc TFS heads. I don't think 325rwhp is really unreasonable, but you never know until you put it together and tune it. Several tuners have told me they thought it would be in the 330-340rwhp range. That is why I have pondered the swap. I would be real happy with a NA 2V if it made 330+rwhp!!!

Thats what I was thinking, sorry CP I think you just tell people on the forums your getting rid of those wheels but you really are keeping them because all the local 240 and honda drivers drool over them.

Still 6500...i haven't seen the dyno sheet yet. They swapped out the bullets just to get it back to how it was BEFORE i got the bullets on i guess. I mean it's ok w/ me...still like the sound.

But hey you g-damn wolves...they will be getting replaced here in a lil bit! I wanted to get the motor all figured out before i went and spent money on anything else. Come on now!!
