I think the gains would be minimal, but they would exist. For $100 I would go for it. The gains would be a lot better if we could port and polish our factory intake and heads, port matched to each other. Now add all that to the torque convertor,376 gears, srt intake and you have built yourself a monster . I am in the process ( and have been for months) of finding someone with very good knowledge of this motor to help me try this out. I would like to see how much power could be made without a power adder (nitrous,blower,turbo) I've yet to find a shop that will attempt this
