very nice-its nice to see someone with a medium size cam with these heads instead of donkey dick cams

like already said, put a thinner head gasket on-maybe itll raise the torque a little

Congrats man. I wish I still had my tr230/224. I was very pleased with it on stock heads. I never tested it with ported heads. Mine made 390rwhp with a cut out and all other supporting mods.

I bet you could have went tighter with the compression. haha.

Congrats on the new found power. I am also glad to see more numbers with those heads and a different cam.

Thanks, it does get up and move when I let it! I will take it to the track soon. I'm still a track novice and just hope I can get a decent mph to go with the power I'm making now!

Get the TFS 215cc because there is no way you could utilize all the airrflow of the L92's

unless you had a max effort 346. Just my .02.

Nothing against those cams but they are a BIT PEAKY. I think anyone who is really serious about having a fast, drivable car who's power doesn't start at 4500 rpm should get a custom grind specifically for their application. Just my .02.

I'm running 28-29 at peak hp, 24-25 at peak tq with no hint of knock. My car has always tolerated a good amount of timing. The AFR is where I tend to be cautious, with 12.4-5ish at peak tq and 12.9 to barely 13.0 at peak hp. Peak hp was going up everytime I leaned it out, but I decided to stop just under 13.0. This was measured with my wideband installed in the driver's side O2 bung (Open Loop tune).
