Ronnie have you ever had you tune tweaked ?
IIRC Travis put down that with a stock turbo. Don't get me wrong that's some good number but I think you can get a little more out of it.

Thanks for sharing those numbers Ronnie. That kinda verifies where I thought I was at for hp and torque with mine as its pretty much the same as yours. I figured I was close to 400 and 750, I'd like to get on a dyno someday too. Have you put any head studs in yours?

Iv definitely looked into head studs. Swamps has a set of studs that's supposedly the best out there and theyre the same price as ARP. Pushrods and springs shouldn't be a huge hole in my pocket either so Ill look into it. All this will definitly keep with my "reliability" theme.

Push rods are around 120 bucks. Springs are around 100

Might as well go s366 cause by the time you'd buy a d66 and bellowed uppipes you could buy the s366 kit and have a few bucks left for beer
