Gained 54 wheel HP with ROE's "Custom Cylinder heads with 78cc chambers for forced induction applications. Features include; 3B stainless steel valves (1.92 Int. / 1.58 Exh.), Crane Springs, Teflon seals, fully machined / polished ports and chambers. Specifically designed for forced induction with flows of 267 Int. / 220 Exh. At .600” lift"

i didnt expect to gain that much without the supercharger since those heads lower the compression :2tu: now im just waiting for the weather to cool down so i can put the supercharger back on :headbang:

these are actually 2 steps colder, but will work just fine.



thanks for posting the numbers. It is always interesting to hear what certain mods do in different situations.

For 100HP shot I have run stock plugs, no problems so far.
Thats what Lee Dove instructed. At 150HP its time for colder plugs...

The oem plugs work when you have the mixture hog rich, get a litle lean and you have glow plugs.
