Dude that looks great, you can't complain with those numbers! I think that head job really got those numbers cause I'm sure my 103" stage II numbers won't be as good as yours!
It is a 95ci build with TRW forged flattops. The heads were decked and a cometic gasket was used to achieve 10.0:1 compression, it has a really nice port and polish job, but I'm still running stock valves and valve springs, the cam is a Bob Wood's TW-6 and is has a Stock Throttle Body bored out to a 51mm. SE Heavy breather and rinehart true duals. It also has compression releases that annoy the crap out of me. It's tuned Via PCIII. I think that is all. It was a low budget build, I got friends involved and put everything together myself, In total I've got about $3500 in it including the Exhaust (purchased used) A/C and PCIII.
As for the guys who questioned the tune, I understand the basics of tuning and by no means claim to really know how to pull it off, I was in the dyno room when it was run, this setup has been together for 4,000 miles now and I just swapped T/B. Prior to that I was making 97hp and 109ft-lbs. I'm friends with the tuner and would not call him out based on someone telling me there is an issue on the internet, however if you wouldn't mind explaining further as to what the issue is that you are seeing, I would tactfully approach him.
He has been a tuner for about 4 years now, He is not in a real performance heavy shop, most of what they do are simple a/c exhaust and cam jobs. So please give me a little more info as to what seems to be the issue. The a/f is nice and smooth on this, I saw it in person and I'm too ignorant to know how you can tell there is an issue otherwise.
Thanks, Tim
