950 Quickfuel, New style Super Cobra Jet heads, stock SPF headers with stock sidepipes serviced to remove a lot of the baffling.

Damn thing was smelly, loud, and so fast. I would do it again in a minute.
That is awesome to hear how you would do it again. I'm sure it was way more power than anyone needs but I imagine it was awesome on the street due to the fact that it had power everywhere in the RPM range. I currently have a 427W but will likely go the BBF route down the line. It's insane that we have such large CI motors that make crazy power and we are always thinking of having a bit more
