    Truck feels great i can definately feel the difference on the big end, but you guys must remember i just now ditched the stock muffler and put some p & p 317 heads on so so all in all we figure i just threw 40rwhp at it....i think the swap is worth it though!

    i had thought about drilling the intake for the evap but the more i thought about it the more i just said forget it, but thank you for adding that in there, definately a great way to solve that problem

    After you do a H/C swap maybe. I think you might lose to much down low and you need everything you can get to turn that 80e, since your "not ever going with a power adder".

    Good write up Virg. I would think this setup would benifit best with the type of mods Virgil has. Did you raise or lower the CR at all with the ported heads or are they untouched?

    the chambers were untouched but the heads have been decked so i am sure it bumped it up a little...the intake and exhaust runners were ported and they have manely valves...much past that im not sure...i need to get the link from Moze and go check out the specifics on them
