LOL from chicago NOT indy. Thats to far of a ride for me especially when I have Joliet, 41, byron and great lakes all within 85 miles of me. Never been to Muncie before hence the reason I asked. Hell I have been to Milan many times in Detroit but only 41 in indiana.

Lol I had a few passes on my stock bolt that were in the 1.39s but well over 50 passes in the low 1.4x until it broke the posi unit. But then again I had my other bone stock one break while I was running 13s. Some are touched by god before leaving the plant and others were most certainly not.

I think each mod will have a different affect depending on when you do it. HP increases more as a percentage than a straight number. Like if you add the Intake first it'll get you 10 hp, then port the heads and get 11. If you were making 100 hp to begin with, both mods got you 10% and it probably wouldn't have mattered which one you did first.

Pat, I think the low hanging fruit is your weight reduction plan.
Then, work on the heads and intake.
Then lastly, the SC upgrade will provide a bigger gain than it will with the present head/intake flow.
