Running the TSP231/237 also here on stock heads. I just put a Jantzer ported TB on last week and felt a difference. SOTP 10 ponies.

You might want to consider AS H/C with there ported intake and TB. Jay can probably give you a good deal on the set. I'm still waiting for mine but I've heard nothing but good things about his work.

A good ported TB is worth 6-8rwhp on a heads/cam setup.
