The SE 204 is one of the best options for bolt in low-to-midrange performance increase in a stock 88 or 96, yes even compared to the Woods and Andrews offerings.

No new springs needed, no headwork needed. I'm about the pull the trigger on a set of SE 204s with a Woods +4 gear to move the grunt down 400 RPMs.
Yes if you want higher RPM performance there are better options, but without a lot of other work the 204s are a good option.

I run 204's right now, had them with a 96 and now a 103" with headwork more compression had it tested on a dyno and did 92 hp I think and around 110 torque, the fuel was a little rich then it pulls strong all the way through. In a stock motor I'd put a 4 degree gear in it as without it it is peaky at 3000 rpm just a little soft on the bottom but not real bad at all. mid to high real good. Now bear in mind this is an older design cam profile but proven profile and in the last year they have made some that are just a little better at least on paper they are. One thing is what they do on the dyno and what you really feel in the seat. Thats my opinion
Oh by the way after tuning it in better it did 99hp 115 torque, just to say 204's don't suck. Yes it would do more with more camshaft and pipes but I'm happy with it the way it is

[QtUOTE=Sash302;9183520]here is a dyno compressing 255 vs 555 I know 555 is making more power BUT
look at the specs
the 255 duration is near as the stock cam
vs 555 much more aggressive cam
if they compare the 204 vs 555 results will be so close.
now for the specs
stock cams
duration 216-220 lift 473 473
(se255) 211-235 550-550
(555 ) 242-242 555-555
(204 ) 236-240 508-508[/QUOTE]
