If you look at the chart, adding the rockers "ONLY" added 22 HORSEPOWER at the wheels... (90HP + 22HP= 112HP A 25% increase in power on a STOCK engine)... Imagine the HP AFTER COMBINED with ALL the other mods I made...
SO, adding 45% might NOT BE SO HARD after all folks...Plus with no additional stress only reduced stress on engine...
Heads Cam Exhaust Crankshaft Flywheel Fuel pressure regulator Lightened valve train Ratio rockers Use of synthetic oils Friction reducing coatings Throttle body Match porting intake and exhaust Air filter changes Blueprinting parts Adjusted timing Plus CAREFUL assembly...
A lot of little changes add up to a bigger change.
