You see like 3 hp to your wheels, and no torque improvment. 2.5-3.0 Exhaust, Intake, SOHC pistons, then '91-early '93 cams, you will see some improvement.
How much of one?

Enough to make anyone happy!

I just realized that came out wrong, sorry! It'll get you to about 170-180 whp... you need a little machining done for the pistons though.

Those cams will shift your powerband up. The only way they will give you 10hp is in conjuction with other "stage 1".. haha.. upgrades... i/h/e.. piggyback fuel controller/chipped ecu/standalone...For a NA car.. those cams will give you a lot better top end... but that isnt always where a NA KA wants to be. The ka makes power in the mid end of the spectrum.

I plan on using those with i/h/e.. a chipped ecu, lightwieght flywheel and pulley along with the sohc pistons.
