It could use a larger cfm to perform, it's pulls good now but you can tell it's restricted and wants to run. It does get good mpg's and that was more of what I was looking for during the winter with my 75+ mile commute a day. This summer I will step into the 500 cfm range and see what happens. I have a couple different carbs to play around with.
Really??!!! Man I wanted that motor of yours, I just couldn't get past the $750 to ship it out here to NJ. I think you got a great deal if you got it for 3K I know mine is going to cost around 4,500 and that's without all the bling I want.
