better heads should do it. the TF 215s should make great power across the board, not sure how the 225s would work, but i doubt they would be BAD for the engine.

and why waste money on upgrading the FAST? spend the money on having it ported. you'll see more with that than the 2mm increase in mouth diameter.

what are the specs on the heads you have now? Couldn't you just have them taken a little further rather then have to purchase another set leaves more money in the pot for other parts. That you don't already have

Just with long tubes dumped and a "good" tune, you should be very close to 500.

And like stated above, if you want just a tad bit more. Take the heads out a little bit more.

That should break 500 for sure.

well they flow 300 to 305 and have 64cc chambers they are livernoise heads I didn't knwo if trickflow had some special port design or something because everything i've seen with those head makes great numbers
