Cobra cam was same, they just came stock with 1.7 rockers instead normal 1.6's

and yes they did degree the cam over 4 degrees, which would make a difference. I think my bad lifter
held me back too. really wasnt running quite right when we did dyno pull.

Still 260rwhp is about 325 at the crank or about right with stock cam, since most companies say about 350 with cam.

Im not sure if those numbers were rwhp though... I didnt see anywhere them mention that this was to the wheels.

The 185's would definetly benefit you alot more but you will need to notch you pistons if you want to use thoes heads.... thats the only problem. I am going to be in the same situation as you... thats why I am going to go with the twisted wedges. They dont flow as much as the 185's... actually not even close BUT they can be ported to flow the same as them and theres no modifications required.

they siad it was ....read last paragraph....

88BlueGT

I didnt read it but I trust ya... I dont see how thats possible when you can have twisted wedge heads, u/l manifold and cam and not even make 300rwhp....

grabbem88

you should make that hp..with what you mentioned.....yeah you are right....my set up isn't all that,but nothing to sneeze at either.

There were two or three people on here though who baught the TF kit with supporting mods and only made around 280rwhp wasnt there? Im almost positive I remember people posting and being like aww this sucks. They even did it on Horsepower TV and only made like 280 something...
