why do you think this?
the heads alone,with mild porting,milling for a bump in compression and a VJ,should be worth around 30-35 hp.then add a cam matched to the heads for the rest.
i know it's kind of ricer math,lol.
but IMO it's definately possible with the newer LSL or comparable lobes that provide more lift and area under the curve,assuming the proper cam timing is used.
