Heads $2000/60 = $33.33/hp
Exhaust $2000/40 = $50.00/hp
Of course, spending $4k is nearly halfway to a Keith Craft 408 with 525 horse and a stronger bottom end.

My thoughts exactly on the new engine.... I'm going to sit on the sidelines for now and enjoy the 448hp/484tq of my current engine. More is always better but the capabilities of this setup far exceed my ability to drive. A performance driving school is definitely in my future.

Just keeping it pointed straight and between the ditches is the goal for now.
