When I bought the kit, it came with .87 a/r. I'm really not excited at the fact that I'm not going to see fireworks until 5,000 rpm's. I've built the head to move as much air and exhaust possible to help with spool time. Peak HP doesn't mean as much to me as it did when the project first started, so I think going with a different size exhaust housing might be the answer~like .76 With the port work, cams, and increased displacement i'd like the fun to start around 4k. Just thought I'd see what y'all thought.

If it's going in a street car I'd definitely change them. Those would be fine for a full drag or dyno queen car, but they'd sux for "normal" driving.
