Default When I spoke with Hans in person 3-4 years ago...
here in South Florida, he said the 225 bottom end was good for 400 hp.

Above that new rods were reccomended.

Hey this is off the subject, How does that Dahlback racing manifold work for you? Is it Ok? Do you see any gains over the TT big bore manifold?

Default Who knows - he didn't say - but could be Revo BT software
which requires tweaking to work correctly depending on setup.

Default if he built the mods for you he would insist on new rods at > 360 crank. >>
This way you can't come back to him with a busted motor

Default Exactly what the problems can be. But can we be assured an engine won't occasionally misfire >
even if tuning seems correct?
