I am an infrequent poster. But this is something to report.

I just had a new motor installed - after a lot of issues. It is a Jasper roller cam motor.

The coach went straight to a top local dyno tuner, Randy Richey, http://www.pahorsepower.com/index.html (real old timers might remember his dad, Les Richey)

For about $900, and three days at the shop, I picked up 44 horsepower but more important went from 311 lbs of torque at 3242 rpm to 439 lbs of torque at 2698 rpm. And when I brought it in, I thought it ran great. Needless to say, now it is better.

I would bet that almost everyone is leaving a lot of power untapped.
