Very nice. That, to me, is what I look for in any engine work. Not flashy dyno readings. Making power that lasts and isn't tearing at its own flesh is where it's at.
Weight and power.....making power used to be expensive and hard. It's gotten much cheaper and much easier. Shedding weight, on the other hands, remains hard and expensive. The killer part about weight is....it's always there. Once you leave the starting line, every MPH you gain comes at the expense of each pound you carry. When you are going 100MPH, that extra 50 lbs. of cylinder head, that set of passenger seat belts, that air conditioning compressor, that radio, are all along for the ride. Then, you have to slow them down, too. If you decide to turn...they try to keep you going straight. Weight on a car is like weight on a woman....you strive to only have it where wanted but you wind up with it in lots of other places. And if you do get it only where you want it, you can't afford it!
