Re: Horsepower
Pay attention to "Valve Float"! These old engines weren't built with high revs and valve float in mind. Stronger springs and adjustable tappets seem an improvement that one would have to consider when making the engine go faster.

Bored 125 over, AER pistons,Rods, insert bearings
Counter weighted the crank, Lighting the flywheel not sure how much off as of yet still working on that
Stipe 340 cam
Snyder 6.0 head removing .010 Best head gasket, piston sticks out the top .051 head right now has a .052 recess cut in it removing .010 off that ,head gasket crush should be .053-.055 so this should leave me with about .042 of quich area
Valves are in. 1.750, ex. 1.50
As of right now the plan is yet this year to still run the A intake and carb
This will be the hangup and only time will tell
Looking at Tod's intake from Snyder's and maybe the Weber carb that they advertise
Thanks all and any Info you may have is greatly appreciated
