Default Gains from FM13 over X1 worth the swap?

I know those Futral cams work good with TEA 1.5s. Wanting to know what the rwhp gain could be. I made 413rwhp 384rwtq with X1 and locked verter. The heads flowed I-306@.600 and E-267@.600. Thanks.

where are you looking to gain? most gains will be 5K+ and i'd wager ~15rwhp. from the looks of your setup i'd say do the swap as you seem to be drag orientated.

Got the f13. Made 421 with heads that flow almost same as yours. Car really needs to be retuned but that was the number so far.

Those #s sound good and I like the torque the most. Im hoping the P/V clearance wont be a problem. The intake is the same between the two but the exhaust is alot bigger. I do have the stock exhaust valve though. I also wonder how much more preload the more exhuast duration and lift would create. How bout lsa, 112 or 114?

You're being watched! And I think someone may be planning something for you!

I've contemplated swapping out my TSP 231/237 for the FM13 or FM14.
I have my eye on the TSP 233/239 as well.

I had the X1 and swapped it for Y1 from MTI and love it. 234 240 .598 .608 113 LSA and its sweet. Check in Sig. This cam loves the spray also!
