Default More Power

I have a 01 RD King which I recently upgraded with a SE stage II 95 BB, SE air intake, SE203 cams and RH exhaust. I was hoping for a little more power so what else can I do? I'm not looking to spend a ton of money but maybe something that I can do in the winter.

I had it dyno'ed at 95 torque and 79 hp. I'm looking to get over a 100 for torque and boost the hp. From what you have listed I have everything except for the head work and throttle body. The SE 203 cams came with the stage II kit but I have heard they won't work well with upgraded heads.Is that the same for ported and polished? Since I just had the cams put in I'm not looking to have them replaced unless it's absolutely
necessary . Also, I have not thought about the thottle body. I will look into that too. Thanks

Port & polish the heads and change to 211 cams. Get a good tune and you will be very happy.

Depending on your piston to vavle clearance, you could put some 1.7 ratio rocker arms in there to get some more lift out of your SE203 cam.

You could do this while you're having the head work done or your could add them with out the head work.

have you thought about putting a set of Twist-Gears in instead of more engine work? http://www.twistgear.net/

it's like gaining 10-15 hp in a box...

Going to look into the cost of having the heads ported and polished this weekend. Still looking into what cam I should use.

You might want to commit to a cam before you get any port work done, the cam will dictate what needs to be done to the heads.
