      Sweet, my car will have almost identical mods once done. (minus the +1 valves). Stoked to see it put down that much power.

            Thanks, It was a pleasant surprise. I was thinking it would be around 220whp :)

                Great numbers - I'm right there with you as well - valves. I cannot wait for things to cool off - I need dyno!

                Great work man! Bronzit brothers :O)
