more bhp

before i noticed bhp i did notice noise. more of an induction roar, guess its a better flowing head and alows more in and out.

the inlet valve is bigger on it, so more petrol air mix can get in. heads are usually skimmed also to raise compression (optional)

ports are smoother / remoddeled for greater air flow characteristics.

bill claims upto 25bhp dependant on model etc etc

if you can stretch to it - GO FOR IT

alternaitvely you can get the same work done at your local engineering firm or whatever

I paid around ?460 for mine, removed the valves myself, and took it there and spoke to him in person. Its worth a long drive just to meet him. He has alot of tales and information that he's always willing to share.
