Default RGU Engine work done, finally

Well, got the 2012 RGU back today. The dealship finally got the engine work done. The issue was Beasley - they have a large back log on headwork.

So, I kept it a 103. Had super stock headwork done, Throttle body ported (both by Beasley), Andrews 54 cams, roller rockers, baker 1.5 oil pan, new clutch and VPP and a dyno. Already had stage 1 done so its running pretty good. Here is the dyno (was/is):

Get outta your way! Looks like it will get down the road very nicely.

That torque line looks nearly identical to mine with 54 cams. You are making a little better numbers up top with the headwork, I'm very happy and you should be happier! Enjoy!

The compression was set at 10.5. Stock was 10:1.

The head specs are on Beasley's website
