Hi all! Just thought I would check in. Things are well and looks like things are busy here. Went for a little photo shoot with my new Nikon last month and figured I would share here too.

Went to spokane last week to get re-tuned after my head swap. Used Advanced Inductions High Compression "241" 219cc heads. I basically sent in my OEm heads, he ports and redesigns the combustion chambers to it bumps up the compression (11:1 now) and allows for safe Piston-to-valve clearence with my current cam.

THE RESULTS: 476.6 rwhp 430.4 rwtrq

I was very pleased with the numbers!! 51hp & 14 ft/lbs gained with a fatter torque curve is a great result for a cheap budget minded head swap. Nice job Advanced Inductions!

Unfortunately they didn't have the old dyno files saved from the previous shop so we couldn't over lay my before and after results. Here is the attached sheet (Brian is emailing me a new sheet that has the same scale for HP and TRQ, this ones a wee bit too high of a trq scale on the right hand side of the sheet)

Dyno was performed at Advanced Auto Fabrication in Spokane, WA.
